The Case of Jennie Brice (serial, Everybody's)
Editors Note:—Here's a real detective story. It isn't just the wonderful plot that Mary Roberts Rinehart has told in "The Case of Jennie Brice" which we urge you to read. It is also the atmospheric picture of Pittsburgh in flood time, the vivid characterization of Mrs. Pitman, the boarding-house keeper; the humanness of Mr. Holcombe, and the keen portrayal of the various people who are interwoven in this exciting drama. Mrs. Rinehart has presented a picture here with all the life-truth of a Meissonier. Her people and her background are brilliantly drawn; her action is thrilling.
