(4) 4-6 History Mysteries series. In 1754 New Hampshire, Rebecca discovers a thief in the fort where she and her sister live after their parents' kidnapping by Abenakis; in 1878 Kansas, Ida Kate uncovers the truth about her father's mail-order bride; in 1904 Missouri, Orphelia learns a family secret while she pursues her own dream of performing music onstage. Though formulaic, these well-narrated stories feature accurate historical details, as do the brief afterwords. [Review covers these History Mysteries titles: Enemy in the Fort, Riddle of the Prairie Bride, The Minstrel's Melody.]
