Description

At this moment she takes special care, however -- for she is setting out to capture a man . . . and not just any man, either: Radnor Hardwick, capable editor of the Daily Bugle, the most enterprising morning journal in the metropolis. Jennie has done work for evening papers, weeklies, and a number of the monthlies, but the income, while reasonably good, is hazardously fitful! As she sets out the door, she unknowingly sets herself upon a future course full of more excitement than she bargained for -- for she finds herself involved in solving a mystery, becoming a special officer for the police -- and being sent on a mission abroad calling for deception and thievery.

Author Biography

Robert Barr (1849 - 1912) was a Scottish-Canadian short story writer and novelist, born in Glasgow, Scotland. In 1881 Barr decided to "vamoose the ranch," as he stated, and relocated to London, to establish there the weekly English edition of the Detroit Free Press. In 1892 he founded the magazine The Idler, choosing Jerome K. Jerome as his collaborator (wanting, as Jerome said, "a popular name"). He retired from its co-editorship in 1895. In London of the 1890s Barr became a more prolific author-publishing a book a year-and was familiar with many of the best-selling authors of his day, including Bret Harte and Stephen Crane. Most of his literary output was of the crime genre, then quite in vogue.
