"Dorothy Dixon and the Mystery Plane" by Dorothy Wayne is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around the adventurous protagonist, Dorothy Dixon, a keen aviatrix with a knack for solving mysteries, as she investigates a suspicious seaplane that has been flying over her beach club repeatedly. With her friend Terry, Dorothy finds herself embroiled in danger when their curiosity leads them to confront a bearded aviator, ultimately tying their adventure to a larger mystery of diamond smuggling. The opening of the novel sets the stage on a summer day at a beach club, where Dorothy and her friends enjoy a carefree afternoon until they spot a mysterious plane that appears to be in distress. As Dorothy displays her bravery and keen interest in aviation, she engages the pilot in conversation, only to be met with hostility. Following a series of comedic but alarming encounters, including an altercation with the aviator that turns physical, Dorothy reveals her determination to uncover the truth behind the plane and its enigmatic pilot, setting off a chain of thrilling events that lead to Terry's mysterious disappearance and Dorothy’s own harrowing experiences with the smuggling gang. As the narrative unfolds, it becomes clear that Dorothy's instincts and her resourceful nature will be crucial in solving the mystery and saving those she cares about.
