| Summary | "Josie O'Gorman and the Meddlesome Major" by Emma Speed Sampson is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Josie O'Gorman, a resourceful young woman who secretly works as a detective while posing as a salesgirl at Burnett & Burnett’s department store. As shoplifting becomes a pressing issue, she must navigate her dual identity while also trying to uncover the truth behind the recent thefts. The beginning of the novel introduces Josie as she starts her new job at Burnett & Burnett's, quickly establishing her clever and observant nature. Not only does she interact with her colorful co-workers, who offer a mix of humor and gossip, but she also reveals a hidden agenda: to investigate a surge of thefts in the store. Major Simpson, the store's old detective, has been called to assist but is portrayed as somewhat ineffective, leading Josie to take matters into her own hands. Her encounters with different characters and the description of her setting in Wakely provide an engaging backdrop for the unfolding mystery. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
