Loved the book and characters from page 1. I don't usually like stories told in 1st person but the "voice" of the main character is so charming, I enjoyed her viewpoints. Caroline Fremont Jones leaves Boston where her father and stepmother reside and takes up her own business in San Francisco as a "type-writer", dropping her feminine first name. Her clients present her with several mysteries along with the letters and manuscripts they bring her to type. Can't wait to read the next 3 (!) in the series.
