Title: The Meriwether mystery
Description: The Meriwether Mystery, first published in 1932 as a Crime Club Book, is a golden-age mystery featuring female sleuth Lynn MacDonald who attempts to solve a puzzling series of murders terrorizing a small resort town. From the dustjacket: “Who stooped and kissed the dead man ... why was there a knife found in the yard if a pistol was thrown from a window ... why bother to smash a xylophone to bits ...? In quiet little Satoria-by-the-Bay, killing was a novelty, but Lynn MacDonald, crime investigator, found that even there the pattern of murder was as terrifying and complex as in a great city ... This is the new mystery by the author of Footprints and October House.”
