I just finished 3 novels and 4 short stories by Mary Roberts Rinehart. Wow! As Matthew, and anyone who really knows my reading tastes will tell you, I like mystery novels, and British literature. Almost without exception, I have hated every American novelist who's works I've read. Until now. Rinehart is considered one of the first, and best American novelists. She, along with Agatha Christie, Ngaio Marsh, Dorothy Sayers, revolutionized the mystery genre. Her books are clean, entertaining, witty, and never a dull moment to be found. Her best work, of the ones I read, would have to be the "Window at the White Cat". Wonderful! Give Rinehart a try when you get a chance.
