Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"The Motor Girls in the Mountains; or, The Gypsy Girl's Secret" by Margaret Penrose is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of adventurous young women, primarily focusing on Cora Kimball and her friends, as they embark on a road trip to the Adirondacks, filled with excitement, friendship, and unexpected challenges. Their journey offers a blend of light-hearted banter and thrilling encounters, setting the stage for a series of adventures that promise both fun and mystery. At the start of the tale, the girls are driving joyfully in Cora's motor car, reveling in their escape toward a summer camp. Their excitement is quickly interrupted by a near-tragic accident involving a child and a speeding car, which they successfully navigate. However, their adventures intensify when they encounter an unnamed man who causes concern among the girls due to his impudent demeanor. This opening sets the tone for the unfolding narrative, leading the girls toward encounters with mystery and possibly danger, including a stop at a gypsy camp, where they sense a deeper secret that hints at unfolding drama in the story.
