A little about the story

Penny Nichols, a detective's daughter with a battered roadster and a nose for trouble, picks up her friend Susan and drives straight into a mystery involving an artist, art thieves and something called the Black Imp.

A mysterious package, a threat, a secret panel and a robbery follow, as Penny tracks down the thieves. A brisk girls' mystery in the style of Nancy Drew.
