The Motor Girls on Waters Blue; Or, the Strange Cruise of the Tartar
"The Motor Girls on Waters Blue; Or, the Strange Cruise of the Tartar" by Margaret Penrose is a fictional novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Cora Kimball and her friends, the Robinson twins, as they navigate both adventures and challenges in their lives, which include personal news, friendships, and the overarching theme of a journey to the West Indies that is intertwined with a mysterious political subtext introduced through a character named Inez, who is seeking to help her imprisoned father. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Cora, who has just returned from a thrilling automobile ride and is eager to share her experience with her friend Bess. Their lighthearted banter quickly shifts to concerns when Cora receives troubling news about her brother Jack's health. As the narrative unfolds, readers witness the dynamics of friendship, adventure, and emerging mysteries, such as Inez's urgent wish to rescue her father from political imprisonment. This sets the stage for a blend of camaraderie and intrigue as the group prepares for their trip, holding the promise of significant personal transformation and unforeseen adventures on the horizon.
