The Woman in the Alcove' is the best detective story which Anna Katharine Green has ever written. In plausibility and ingenuity, the author has outdone herself. Among the American makers of this popular kind of fiction Anna Katharine Green has for a long time been easily first.
As long as people in general love mystery and a plot that puzzles, so long will the novels of Anna Katharine Green be read avidly.
The murder of a beautiful woman occurs in the first chapter at a very unusual time and place, and the rest of the book is devoted to arousing and unraveling suspicions as to the identity of the murderer. One does not look for character drawing or social analysis in such books, but it requires no small skill to write them as acceptably as does Anna Katherine Green, who pleases her large constituency well.
This book may keep the reader up after his usual bedtime.
Beautifully Illustrated by A. I. Keller.
