| Summary |
"Green Eyes" by Roy J. Snell is a mystery story for girls written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around the adventures of Florence Huyler and her French friend, Petite Jeanne, as they encounter thrilling and dangerous situations in a mysterious northern setting. The story develops themes of friendship, courage, and a deep connection to nature, while unfolding a captivating mystery that intertwines their lives with enigmatic characters. The opening of the story sets a vivid scene on Morton's Bay, where Florence and Petite Jeanne find themselves in a rowboat during a tranquil night, contemplating the mysterious island and its reclusive inhabitant. Their peace is abruptly shattered by a speeding boat that causes their own vessel to capsize, plunging them into the cold waters. As Florence swims to safety with Petit Jeanne in tow, they seek refuge at the mysterious island cottage and meet an intriguing young woman, whose connection to the unfolding mystery is hinted at through her actions and belongings. This series of events establishes an atmosphere of suspense and encourages exploration of both character dynamics and the secrets that lie hidden in the shadows of their surroundings.
