Miss Holbrook and Miss Pat Seek Quiet at St Agathas
In a lakeside passage to Annandale, Patricia Holbrook and her niece Helen approach St Agatha's School under telegram orders from Father Stoddard. Donovan, the Irish narrator, escorts them from Glenarm to the secluded halls, hearing of a million-dollar inheritance, family feuding, and a persistent unwanted suitor.
