Ukrainian Egg Mystery — George Edward Stanley
DETOUR TO A MYSTERY
It was the most exciting night of their lives. As the ice hockey team from Miss Westminster's Fine School for Girls boarded the plane, they were reminded by Miss Westminster herself that the honor and glory of their school was on the line. They had to win the National Ice Hockey Championship in Buffalo...except the plane was not headed for Buffalo!
It seemed strange to be ushered aboard a New York to Buffalo flight by armed guards and to see so many passengers wearing black hats and coats and dark glasses. But it was the daffy Russian princess wearing a diamond tiara and white sequined evening gown who revealed their true destination. They were on their way to Russia! And the - princess wanted them to smuggle a decorated egg containing secret information into the U.S.S.R.!
For Miss Westminster's girls, it was the beginning of a great adventure in pursuit of ice hockey glory and the secrets of the mysterious egg--a zany trip through Russia that took them from the Moscow Ice Hockey Palace to Gorky Park, to the grand and beautiful G.U.M. Palace, and finally...on to Buffalo!
