Mary Roberts Rinehart was one of the best-selling American authors of the early twentieth century, a pioneer of the “had-I-but-known” school of mystery fiction and a major force in popular women’s writing. The Amazing Adventures of Letitia Carberry features a comically adventurous middle-aged woman whose determination to have adventures consistently outpaces her dignity — winning her readers’ complete affection.
Warm, funny, and brisk, the Letitia Carberry pieces show Rinehart’s gift for comedy. Download this free public-domain EPUB at Better Gutenberg.
