Following Trixie

One night, coming home from the movies, Honey’s brother sees her shivering and asks whether she is cold – ready to offer her his scarf ...

‘Not cold,’ she answered.  ‘Those western pictures frighten me.’
‘How you could have followed Trixie into some of the tight spots she led you into, I’ll never know,’ Mart said.
‘I didn’t know about them until I was into them.’ Honey sighed.  ‘When I did know I’d have been more frightened to have her go on alone.’
 
- Trixie Belden and the Mysterious Code (1961)
