Trine Hampstead knows everything. Just knows it. Ask her a question like, "Where are my keys?" or, "Is my husband cheating on me?" or, "How can there be perfectly preserved mammoths in the ice of Siberia when the ice isn't that old?" and she just knows the answer. She's the Mystery Girl. The only thing she doesn't know is anything about the last ten years of her own life, including what happened to give her this ability. But that's a mystery for later. The mystery for now is about those mammoths. Trine knows why they're there but surprises anyone who knows Trine by demanding to leave her London-based sidewalk detective setup to go to Siberia with the archaeological team to see them for herself. And close behind is a vicious killer who is targeting her for reasons even Trine doesn't know.

The cozy college town of Corinth, New England is the setting for this classic locked-room mystery by Carolyn Wells, author of The Clue. All entrances to the study where the body was found were locked from the inside. The future college president and groom-to-be had no known cause for suicide, yet no clues point to a murder. Was Anita, the eponymous Mystery Girl, who is rumored to have been romantically involved with the dead man, somehow implicated in his death? Love letters between the two of them point to her potential guilt. And yet she seems incapable of such a crime. It's up to Detective Fleming Stone to decipher the story's twin puzzles; the mystery of the locked-room death and the true nature of ... The Mystery Girl.

And close behind her is a killer who’s targeted Trine for reasons even she doesn’t know.
