Originally this book was not reprinted with the other Beverly Gray titles, because the setting (Chicago's Century of Progress) dated the Story. One of the rarest of all girls series books, the sixth Beverly Gray mystery finds Beverly and her friends graduated from college and working in New York. Bored and envious that one of the other Alpha girls is going to Paris to study, Beverly and the remaining friends plan a month's outing to the 1933 Century of Progress Exposition in Chicago. Typical of Beverly, she witnesses a murder while at the Fair and proves instrumental in finding the murderer." VERY SCARCE TITLE,
