This review is from: Murder in the Blue Room (Hardcover)
It is 1942. Mrs. Roosevelt and schoolchildren discuss bombs. Louis Howe, the President's confidant, has been dead for six years. Missy LeHand is ill. The Soviet Foreign Minister, Molotov, is visiting. The Russians bring their own vodka to the cocktail party. They are suspicious of the shaker of martinis.
A golden blonde appears in the Blue Room. The Secret Service is summoned. The death is not accidental. Her name is Emily Ryan. She was twenty eight years old and an orphan. Miss Ryan worked for Stephen Early, the President's Press Secretary. It seems that Emily had saved her carbon paper and by such means slipped stories to a radio commentator. Mrs. Roosevelt discovers that Don Pettengill, (his mother was a Cabot), is engaged to be married to Barbara Lowell. Armed with such knowledge she begins to unravel this ably told mystery. |
