The surprising notew for the period, and for the white-collar, upper-middle class milieu Disney favors, is that the women of the novels, in spite of hats, hats, gloves, dresses, and apparently conventional attitudes, are liberated. Her females are actresses, doctors, successful businesswomen, civil servants - and villains.' - Neysa Chouteau, Martha Alderson, Twentieth-Century Crime and Mystery Writers. -- References: Reilly, 'Twentieth-Century Crime and Mystery Writers' (1980), 491. -- Octavo (book size 21x14.3cm), pp. [6] 312 [2].
