I didn’t like this book so well. The nieces and Uncle John are as lovable as ever, but some of the society crowd they become attached to are very unlikable. Louise’s mother that the exceedingly rich Uncle John find a way to introduce the girls into society. Because he doesn’t care to know anything about society, he does as she says, thinking the girls have said something about wishing to be a part. He asks one of the men he does business with if he knows how this introducing into society can be done. The gentleman suggests his daughter Diana might help. Diana agreed... not because she wishes to be a kind friend, but because she may find some amusement for herself. She visits each of the girls, inviting the to receive with her at her next event. They each have different ways of responding, for the most part having to be coaxed to it, which she is somewhat baffled about. At the reception, one of the guests is Louise’s friend from their adventures in Europe. The fact that Louise is already known to Arthur Weldon surprises Diana, who has her own interests in the young man. From this point, the plot becomes more interesting with intrigue and danger mixed in with the enjoyable society events. But dastardly deeds threaten in more ways than one. The readers were fine for this book.
