Josie O'Gorman is a sharp‑witted teenager who has turned her most conspicuous feature into a secret weapon. With a pair of unremarkable eyes and a remarkably pliable nose, she can reshape her visage at will, slipping into disguises that baffle even the most cunning crooks. Raised by a famous detective father, she blends youthful curiosity with a keen investigative instinct, all while sharing lively banter with her best friend, Mary Louise.
In the opening adventure, a strikingly handsome but ruthless adversary ridicules Josie's appearance, sparking a personal showdown in front of a mirror. Determined to prove that looks matter far less than cleverness, she hones her nose‑control technique and sets off to outwit the villain who thinks good looks guarantee success. Along the way, her humor and courage make every twist feel like a playful game of cat and mouse.

A lively early-20th-century writer of girls' fiction, sequels, and series books, she moved easily between humor, mystery, and family stories. Her career also took an unusual turn into film censorship and newspaper reviewing in Richmond, Virginia.
