Blurb: “A gripping blend of school-story adventure and mystery from one of America’s most beloved Catholic juvenile authors. In Harry Dee, young Harry arrives at St. Maure’s Academy haunted by a dark past: the unsolved murder of his wealthy uncle and the lingering suspicion that surrounds him. With the help of his loyal friends Tom and Percy, Harry confronts both his trauma and a long-buried secret as they investigate the eerie Tower Hill Mansion and uncover the truth behind the crime.
Part of Father Francis J. Finn’s classic trilogy (following Tom Playfair and Percy Wynn), this 1892 Benziger Brothers hardcover combines moral storytelling, boarding-school camaraderie, and a surprisingly suspenseful mystery. A cornerstone of late-19th-century Catholic boys’ literature—and a wonderful piece of American juvenile fiction history.”
