Book Review #54: The Window at the White Cat


The Window at the White Cat is a mystery novel written by Mary Roberts Rinehart and was originally published in 1910. Jack Knox is an attorney in a city when a beautiful 19 year old woman comes to his office to ask him to help her find her father who is the state treasurer and has been missing. Because of her father’s position, she doesn’t want it to go public. Jack gets a detective to help him and there are mysterious happening from the start such as footsteps at night after everybody has gone to bed and the disappearance of objects and other people at night. Jack believes all of this is tied together and is set on seeing to these mysteries end.

There is action throughout the book and the mysteries aren’t solved until the last few chapters of the book. There is a little bit of romance tied in, but enough to ruin the story. This is only the third book of hers that I’ve read and am quickly becoming a fan. I highly recommend this book if you want to read a mystery that is in the public domain.

If interested in reading this book, you can download it in various e-book formats from the following sites:
