About this book
Strange lights in Captain Pete Hall’s large house catch Renfro Horn’s attention during a snowy walk. The old man says he has moved into a smaller shack for the winter, leaving Renfro to wonder who could be lighting the windows. His curiosity draws him into a mystery involving a missing girl, marks on glass and an unusual clue: eyebrows frozen to a window pane.
Stephen Rudd places the investigation alongside the practical business of carrying newspapers. Renfro worries about delivery times, winning subscribers and respecting another carrier’s territory even while pursuing clues. Mary Dugan, proud of what she has learned from a detective course, joins his efforts and helps finish a delayed route. Their brisk exchanges bring humor to this children’s mystery, while the details of streetcars, paper bags and evening rounds give it a working daily rhythm.
