The story introduces Ruth Fielding, a spirited and optimistic protagonist as she embarks on a new adventure by leaving her home at the Red Mill to attend Briarwood Hall, a boarding school. Along the way, Ruth is joined by her friends Helen and Tom, setting the stage for various mysteries and challenges they are likely to encounter during their time at the school. The opening portion of the book establishes a detailed and picturesque setting, describing an autumn morning filled with hustle and bustle as Ruth prepares for her departure.
