NO QUESTION OF MURDER

The loyal devotion of Emma Plume, ""Nanny"" to Eloise, and then to her daughter after her marriage to charming, worthless Richard Curwen, leads from doubts to graver suspicions, when she is sacked by Curwen and receives word only through the governess who replaced her of the charges she loves. Alternating accounts- by Richard --and by Antonia, his wife's cousin and close likeness, fill in the auticipated chronology of a crime which cannot be proved but which has its unexpected moment of retribution. ""Peter Curtis"" is also an impersonation (Noral Lofts). Her first story in this genre is sure and susceptible within a somewhat old -fashioned frame.
