"Aunt Jane's Nieces at Millville" by L. Frank Baum is a young adult novel published in 1908. When Uncle John Merrick acquires a remote farm in upstate New York through a defaulted loan, he whisks his three nieces away for a summer escape.

As the girls play detective in their bucolic surroundings, they discover that small-town life holds more secrets than expected. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
