About This Item
New York, NY, U.S.A.: Random House Books for Young Readers, 1987. First Edition. Mass Market Paperback. Near Fine/No Jacket. Kaluta, Michael W. (illustrator). Byron Preiss/Random House paperback; 154 p.; NF, very clean and bright, spine uncreased. Bright art-deco cover design. "Paris Mackenzie is a sixteen-year-old from Chicago with an irrepressible personality and a passion for Sherlock Holmes. When she visits her namesake city at the turn of the century, Paris finds all the glamour and romance she ever dreamed of. But the city's glittering facade hides a dark underside, whose danger is like a magnet to the intrepid Paris, pulling her closer and closer to treachery, deceit . . . and even murder. World-famous artist Claude Monet has invited Paris and Marcel to visit him in the tranquil French countryside at Giverny. But the waters of Monet's private pond are distinctly troubled when a dead man is found floating amid the lilies. Only Paris believes it is more than an accident." 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
