Fire and Fog: A Fremont Jones Mystery (Fremont Jones Mysteries)
"I have something of a wild streak in me" says Fremont Jones, the heroine ofFire and Fog. First seen inThe Strange Files of Fremont Jones, she returns here a survivor of the great 1906 earthquake in San Francisco. After rescuing her typewriter from the rubble, Jones goes to work helping out the Red Cross, typing letters in the home of a woman she saved during the tremor, hunting for illegal artifacts and investigating a murder.  She even gets kidnapped by a ninja. That might seem like a bit much, but then, who's to say that there were no ninjas back then? Besides, the early 20th century was a busy time, and Fremont Jones is a busy, busy woman. She's also a great sleuth and an irrepressible and enjoyable adventuress.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
