Turquoise Summer

Late in 1945, the war over, Frank Hamilton and his wife Jane settle in for a month at Grand Lake, Colorado, a trip they have waited a long time to take. An editor at a Kansas newspaper, Frank plans to spend his days fly fishing. Jane hopes to shed her society commitments and discover a new passion of her own. Their sharp, 11-year-old granddaughter Maggie comes along. She fancies herself a Nancy Drew in the making and is convinced that a rickety old cabin and a grumpy grandmother hide a mystery she must solve before her holiday can feel complete. To keep Maggie in line, the Hamiltons' trusted maid Alma is sent along, and the job pushes her into situations she never imagined she would face or should enter.
