About This Book

A later section of the mystery follows Becky and the young girl Fanny as they gather evidence, tail suspicious figures and uncover hidden connections between tenants and visitors. Fanny’s stealthy surveillance reveals parallels in manner that lead to identification of Richard Manx, while Becky navigates shifting household alliances and the arrival of a new tenant at No. 119. Interleaved diary entries and domestic negotiations deepen the investigation, which moves through confinement and culminates in retribution, with a newspaper-like column providing a sequelish coda to a romantic subplot.
