In Mystery Behind Dark Windows, a young girl tries to discover the source of mysterious sounds coming from her aunt's deserted mill.

Acclaimed New England author Mary C. Jane (1909-1991) raised her two sons in Newcastle, Maine. Reading aloud to them sparked her interest in children's literature. After the boys were grown, she returned to teaching, where she soon realized many reluctant readers could be encouraged to read with mysteries. In 1955, she wrote her first book, Mystery in Old Quebec. Many more followed, delighting her fans.
