Shopgirl. Telephone operator. Lady's companion. Smashingly good secretary. All jobs that Dorothy Lundegaard possesses the skills to excel at. And even at the tail end of the Great Depression in St. Paul, Minnesota, all jobs that Dottie could secure for herself.
But, alas, none appeal to her. Her true calling, her vocation, remains the family business. She longs to follow in her father's private detective footsteps. Or at least assist her brother John as he strives to revive the agency after the death of their father.
She gets her chance when her brother is presented with the case of a kidnapped girl. A very resourceful girl. The sort of girl that reminds Dottie of herself at that age.
Dottie's insights might prove just the thing her brother needs to get that girl home safe.
"A Resourceful Girl," the first short story in the Dorothy Lundegaard Mysteries.
