My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Isabel is growing up in Chicago during prohibition. She needs to sell newspapers at the corner to help her mother put food on the table, but her heart's desire is to become a news reporter. She finds herself in the middle of a murder investigation - a gangster's murder investigation!
This is a well written, old style mystery for kids. Isabel is plucky and the setting is gritty and feels real. A welcome addition to our library.
