The Fortunes of Frick

by Mollie Chappell

"A baby, found alive in a fever-ridden district of North Africa, her parents dead and all trace of identity gone - that is Frick! Africa, land of so many secrets, had swallowed up Frick’s own pathetic little personal mystery too... Little compared to that vast country’s many mysteries, but big and important to the one person whom it most intimately concerned - Frick herself.
We first met Frick in The House on the Kopje, when she was living in Rhodesia as one of the Carter family; and after reading this first book it was of Frick we asked, "But what happened after that?"
Mollie Chappell now gives the answer in a new book featuring the same characters as the first, but with the spotlight on Frick. Girls who already know her will be eager to read about her adventures when she comes to Britain, and those meeting her for the first time will find no less enjoyment in this attractive, sympathetic story, written in Mollie Chappell’s own easy and vivid style."
