The Four Pools Mystery

The Four Pools Mystery

Jean Webster2020
Here is one of the best, if not the best, stories of mystery and tragedy of the 1900 years. To 'Four-Pools,' a quiet stock-farm set in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley, comes a worn-out New York lawyer for a vacation. He is a witness of many curious things and of the final tragedy. The unraveling of the mysteries which follow each other with a cumulative interest is due to a clever New York newspaper chap. It's an unusual and stirring story, in which the portrayal of life on a Southern plantation and the horror and fear roused in the negroes by what they believed manifestations of the ancestral “ ha'nt , ' is clearly and vividly done. A book that will keep its readers up nights.
