Description
New York/London: D. Appleton-Century Company. Very Good. 1936 (c.1935). First Edition. Hardcover. (no dust jacket) [modest shelfwear, light water-spotting on front cover, spine cloth a little faded, non-authorial Christmas gift inscription in pencil on front endpaper]. (pen & ink illustrations & chapter-head drawings) A group of boarding-school girls investigate a mystery. The author had published her first book (under her maiden name, Josephine Dodge Daskam) in 1900, a collection of stories set at her alma mater, Smith College. By the mid-1930s she was well-established as an author of juvenile mysteries for girls; per Wikipedia, she also wrote on women's issues and was a pioneer in the Girl Scouts movement. (The copyright on this book is credited to the Girl Scouts, in fact, which suggests to me that it might have been previously published in serial form in some Girl Scout publication.) .
