K. Summary
| It was that bete noir of the playwright, an ensemble; K. Le Moyne and Sidney, Palmer Howe, Christine, Tillie, the younger Wilson, Joe, even young Rosenfeld, all within speaking distance, almost touching distance, gathered within and about the little house on a side street which K. at first grimly and now tenderly called "home."... Sitting just inside the door on a straight chair was Sidney-such a Sidney as he never had seen before, her face colorless, her eyes wide and unseeing, her hands clenched in her lap. ..."They say I poisoned him." Her voice was dreary, inflectionless. "K." is one of Mary Roberts Rinehart's earlier novels that weaves a mystery around the characters on the Street; it could be any street; especially in Pittsburgh. |

The Street stretched away north and south in two lines of ancient houses that seemed to meet in the distance. The man found it infinitely inviting. It had the well-worn look of an old coat, shabby but comfortable. The thought of coming there to live pleased him. Surely here would be peace - long evenings in which to read, quiet nights in which to sleep and forget. It was an impression of home, really, that it gave. |
