Can Adele help the police catch a thief before he ruins everybody’s Labor Day?
For Adele Gossling, Labor Day is about giving voice to progressive reforms such as the eight-hour work day and minimum wage for women. But for business owners in Arrojo, Labor Day is about making money. City folks flock to the country seeking holiday deals they can’t get in San Francisco or Sacramento.
What they don’t know is there’s a thief in town. He’s already gotten away with burglarizing business owners in neighboring cities, and the county police can’t seem to get their hands on him.
Who is stealing gold trinkets from the shops in Arrojo, California? Is it the dandified Mr. Lyman? The town’s junk collector and pariah, Zephyr Brown? Or is it someone (or something) beyond their wildest imagination?
Follow the adventures of epistolary expert and suffragist Adele Gossling and her visionary friend Nin Branch as they try to catch a thief and his unique accomplice.
