"Signal in the Dark" by Mildred A. Wirt is a mystery novel written in the mid-20th century. The story centers around Penny Parker, a young and determined woman who aspires to be a reporter for her father's newspaper, the Riverview Star. As she embarks on her journey into the world of journalism, she encounters challenges that test her resolve and skills, including a major story involving an explosion and a potential crime. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Penny's ambitions as she pleads with her father, Anthony Parker, to hire her as a cub reporter at the newspaper. Despite his initial reluctance due to the harsh realities of the job, he eventually agrees, leading her into a whirlwind of events. As Penny navigates her first assignments, she faces skepticism from her colleagues and must quickly learn the ropes of reporting, all while dealing with an office scandal and budding rivalries. The opening chapters set the stage for her growth and the mysterious occurrences at the Conway Steel Plant, ultimately hinting at deeper conflicts that Penny will unravel in her quest for truth.
