V. FLORENCE LLOYD
A stir was perceptible all through the room as Miss Lloyd acknowledged by a bow of her beautiful head the summons of the coroner.
The jurors looked at her with evident sympathy and admiration, and I remembered that as they were fellow-townsmen and neighbors they probably knew the young woman well, and she was doubtless a friend of their own daughters.
It seemed as if such social acquaintance must prejudice them in her favor, and perhaps render them incapable of unbiased judgment, should her evidence be incriminating. But in my secret heart, I confess, I felt glad of this. I was glad of anything that would keep even a shadow of suspicion away from this girl to whose fascinating charm I had already fallen a victim.

3.5 stars
This was an entertaining and light read, very traditional mystery. Wells is no Agatha Christie but her books are fun to read. One thing I'm having a hard time getting used to is the way Wells works with her detective Fleming Stone. This is the second book of the series that I've read and it
Gold Bag?
The gold bag was a missleading instrument in finding the true culprit. I enjoyed how the writing went along so smoothly, though. Stone had to be called in because the main detective, Burrows, had stars in his eyes for miss Florence. This made it difficult for him since she was one of the su
