The Case of Jennie Brice

The blood-stained rope and towel, the stray slipper, the broken knife, and the disappearance of the lovely Jennie Brice were enough to convince Mrs. Pitman that murder had been committed in her boarding house. The police, however, were another matter. Without a body, there could be no official murder charge. Mrs. Pitman ran a respectable establishment and was not about to harbor a killer. If the police couldn't see what was in front of their noses, then she would have to take matters into her own hands. As the landlady, after all, she had the perfect excuse to do a little judicious snooping.
