Reviews[edit]
- Mr. Davis again resorts to South America for the scene of his new novel. The White Mice are an organization of young Americans pledged to succor and save people in distress. Two of them Roddy Forrester and Peter de Peyster go to Venezuela, the former as an employé of his father's construction company and the latter as a looker-on. They become interested in a political prisoner. General Rojas, who is being slowly done to death in a dungeon of the castle at Porto Cabello. The white mice determine to save him and the story tells of their brave effort. A pleasing love story is woven in, as well as political complications, ending in a brief sharp revolution. The story is artistically perfect. —The Canadian Bookman, 1909
