Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Phantom Violin: A Mystery Story for Girls" by Roy J. Snell is a mystery novel written likely in the early 20th century. The story features three adventurous girls—Petite Jeanne, Florence, and Greta—who have taken up residence aboard a wrecked ship on Lake Superior during the summer. Their idyllic summer soon turns mysterious as they encounter strange happenings including ghostly sightings and a phantom violinist, setting them on a journey filled with intrigue and adventure. At the start of the tale, we are introduced to Petite Jeanne, who, in a ghostly white gown, frightens off two men who have approached the wreck while she and her friends discuss the enchanting sights and sounds surrounding them. As they settle into their new home, they enjoy the beauty of Isle Royale but are soon caught up in mysterious happenings, such as hearing spectral music and encountering unknown visitors. The opening chapters lay the groundwork for an adventurous summer filled with exploration, mystery, and the potential for danger, proving that the summer may bring more than just sun-soaked leisure on the ship.
