White Holiday

by Viola Bayley

A fortnight's holiday in Switzerland! When Mrs. Vandermeyer's invitation arrived, Rosamund and Will Burnaby could hardly believe their good fortune. Of course there was Mrs. Vandermeyer's objectionable son Lewis to contend with, but both Rosamund and fifteen-year-old Will considered this a very minor flaw in their happiness.
The Grand Hotel in Reingien was a wonderful place, but when the Burnabys became friendly with the celebrated young ski-er, Otto von Vierling, and learnt his story, danger and mystery began to cast a shadow over their enjoyment. How Rosamund, Will and Lewis helped to protect Otto from his unknown enemy is told in this exciting story, set in a picturesque landscape of snow and ice-capped mountains.
Viola Bayley's style contains a fresh charm which makes her very readable, and her happy gift for characterisation fills her book with people who, from attractive Rosamund to eccentric Miss Drover at the hotel, are warm and individual.
