Picked up to read and/or release.

Mary and her brother James Randolph move to St. Louis, Missouri to manage their father's shipping facility there. Mary sees that there is a need for a home for St. Louis's orphan. It is disgraceful how they are being treated in this town. She's willing to battle the by-the-book police captain Samuel Benton to protect them. Interesting how it all works out. Read for the 2022 states read challenge.

Surprise rabck for heartthumper and her mother. Happy reading.
