As the recipient of one of these wicked little letters, Edith finds herself scandalized by the profane language that leaps off the page. With her delicate sensibilities offended, she wastes no time in pointing an accusing finger at the most unlikely suspect: Rose, the rowdy Irish migrant with a tongue as sharp as her wit.
Rose, with her fiery spirit and unapologetic demeanor, becomes the prime suspect in this peculiar case of mischief.
