Two Flights Up is a novel written by Mary Roberts Rinehart, first published in 1930. The story follows the lives of two women, Miss Letitia Carberry and Miss Henny Breen, who live in a boarding house on the second floor. The two women are very different in personality, with Miss Carberry being a wealthy and eccentric spinster, while Miss Breen is a practical and hardworking woman who runs the boarding house. The novel is set in a small town in the United States and revolves around the mysterious disappearance of a wealthy businessman, Mr. Oliver. Miss Carberry becomes obsessed with solving the case and enlists the help of Miss Breen to investigate. They soon discover that Mr. Oliver had many enemies and had been involved in some shady business deals. As they delve deeper into the case, the two women find themselves in danger and must use their wits to stay alive. Along the way, they encounter a cast of colorful characters, including a handsome detective, a group of suspicious tenants, and a sinister gangster. Two Flights Up is a classic mystery novel that combines suspense, humor, and a touch of romance. It is a delightful read that will keep you guessing until the very end.1928. Rinehart, American writer of mystery novels known for their humor and ingenuity, begins Two Flights Up: Answering the front door at the Bayne house was a lengthy matter. The postman had learned this long ago, and now he merely laid the mail in the vestibule and went away. First, Mrs. Bayne would look in the old reflecting mirror which still hung from her bedroom window and take note of the ringer. Then she would whisper cautiously over the stair rail: It's the milk bill. I'm not in. Or, as had been happening more and more frequently for the last six months: It's Furness, Holly. Come right up, and I'll send down your Aunt Margaret to receive him.
