Eleven-year-old Nell Warne arrives on her aunt's doorstep lugging a
heavy sack of sorrows. If her Aunt Kate rejects her, it's the
miserable Home for the Friendless. Luckily, canny Nell makes
herself indispensable to Aunt Kate...and not just by helping out
with household chores. For Aunt Kate is the first-ever female
detective employed by the legendary Pinkerton Detective Agency. And
Nell has a knack for the kind of close listening and bold action
that made Pinkerton detectives famous in Civil War-era America.
With huge, nation-changing events simmering in the background, Nell
uses skills new and old to uncover truths about her past and solve
mysteries in the present. Based on the extraordinary true story of
Kate Warne, this fast-paced adventure recounts feats of daring and
danger...including saving the life of Abraham Lincoln!
