Today, I met a most interesting person. I was detecting on Broadway. I had heard people talk about the mysterious woman who was in town. The news papers called her a mentalist but I heard father say she was no doubt just another crook. Since I have seen only a few crooks and no mentalists, I am determined to learn more about this stranger....
