Murder and the First Lady

ISBN: 0312552807

Author: Elliott Roosevelt

Condition: New

A young woman who is in Mrs. Roosevelts employ is suspected in the murder of her boyfriend. Mrs. Roosevelt is certain that the young woman (Pamela) is innocent and with the help of a few officials, sets out to prove it. This is not an easy task, since the murdered boyfriend is the son of a Congressman who doesnt take too kindly to Mrs. Roosevelts involvement, especially since her investigations reveal a few not-so-nice details about the young mans personal life and hobbies. The plot involves a jewel theft and false identities. Youll get to meet a few seedy characters from the gambling world. Mrs. Roosevelt mingles with these people in an effort to get information, and its rather amusing. Overall, this is a fun, easy to read book with a good plot. I wouldnt call it intriguing or suspenseful, since the guilty party/parties are made sort of obvious. But its fun nonetheless.
