The Vanishing of Carolyn Wells by Rebecca Rego Barry Pdf

The Vanishing of Carolyn Wells is the first biography of one of the “lost ladies” of detective fiction who wrote more than eighty mysteries and hundreds of other works between the 1890s and the 1940s. Carolyn Wells (1862–1942) excelled at writing country house and locked-room mysteries for a decade before Agatha Christie entered the scene. In the 1920s, when she was churning out three or more books annually, she was dubbed “about the biggest thing in mystery novels in the US.” On top of that, Wells wielded her pen in just about every literary genre, producing several immensely popular children’s books and young adult novels; beloved anthologies; and countless stories, prose, and poetry for magazines such as Thrilling Detective, Life, The Saturday Evening Post, Harper’s, and The New Yorker. All told, Wells wrote over 180 books. Some were adapted into silent films, and some became bestsellers. Yet a hundred years later, she has been all but erased from literary history. Why? How? This investigation takes us on a journey to Rahway, New Jersey, where Wells was born and is buried; to New York City’s Upper West Side, where she spent her final twenty-five years; to the Library of Congress, where Carolyn’s world-class collection of rare books now resides; and to many other public and private collections where exciting discoveries unfolded. Part biography and part sleuthing narrative, The Vanishing of Carolyn Wells recovers the life and work of a brilliant writer who was considered one of the funniest, most talented women of her time.

The Vanity Case by Carolyn Wells Pdf

This is a mystery novel that revolves around the murder of Myra, Perry Heath's wife. Myra had always had money, and recently, because of an uncle's death, had inherited a lot more. No one ever caught a sign of a jarring note between husband and wife, yet no one ever saw a sign of affection. They had two house guests for a bridge party at their place; Lawrence Inman, Myra's distant cousin, and Bunny Moore. On the night of the party, Heath's marital problems come to a head when Myra asks Bunny to leave her husband alone. However, Perry also accuses her of flirting with Larry, her cousin. But she denies this saying Larry is her cousin and heir. Myra is discovered dead on the studio floor the next morning, having been struck by one of her antique bottles and Perry goes missing. To add to the mystery, Myra, a non-cosmetics user, is discovered quite painted and decorated, with the vanity box containing the cosmetics missing. Emily Prentiss couldn't sleep and noticed lights in the night while watching the Heath home out her window when the murder occurred. Todhunter Buck, her nephew, decides to solve the crime on his own and teams up with Alexander Cunningham, who has been appointed by the Country Club and is also curious about where their member Heath has gone. Police Detective Mott questions people without success, so Buck calls in an old friend, private detective Steve Truitt.

The Mystery Girl by Carolyn Wells Pdf

The cozy college town of Corinth, New England is the setting for this classic locked-room mystery by Carolyn Wells, author of The Clue. All entrances to the study where the body was found were locked from the inside. The future college president and groom-to-be had no known cause for suicide, yet no clues point to a murder. Was Anita, the eponymous Mystery Girl, who is rumored to have been romantically involved with the dead man, somehow implicated in his death? Love letters between the two of them point to her potential guilt. And yet she seems incapable of such a crime. It's up to Detective Fleming Stone to decipher the story's twin puzzles; the mystery of the locked-room death and the true nature of ... The Mystery Girl.
