"Those who have not already made the acquaintance of Hildegarde should make haste to do so, for she is one of the world's shrewdest and most amusing detectives."-The New York Times Miss Hildegarde Withers, middle-aged school teacher and amateur sleuth, stars in five short stories by Stuart Palmer. Miss Withers, her odd hats, and her ever-present umbrella have been featured in seven motion pictures and seventeen full-length novels, which, like the shorts, are characterized by madcap stories of murder and brilliant deduction. Included in this collection: The Puzzle of the Scorned Woman (aka The Riddle of the Lady from Dubuque) The Riddle of the Yellow Canary A Fingerprint in Cobalt (aka The Riddle of the Blue Fingerprint) The Riddle of the Doctor's Double Green Fire (aka The Riddle of the Green Ice) |
