"Miss Lutie at 63 could well be called a 'dainty rogue in porcelain.' And readers of 'Our First Murder' will remember how easily -- not to say eagerly -- she took to the business of being a New York detective when a surprising legacy thus strangely transplanted her and her elder sister from their native village in Maine. [. . .] There's an excellent whodunit plot in the tale of Hero Lynn and the people who loved or feared her and who were suspects all. But the author's outstanding achievement is Miss Lutie herself."
