Hi Robert-
Another poster also suggested your book. Although it wasn't
written in the era I was looking for, I still put it on my
wishlist and am hoping to be able to get it soon. I think
finding books written in the 1930s-1950s with a female
protagonist is going to be hard, but again, hunting is part
of the fun. Thanks again and keep up the good work
(Baby Shark looks really good)!
