The Explorers Club
Nell Benjamin
What a quandary!
Old Tom is dead and a woman wants to join the club.
The Arctic Institute, a bastion for gents that is now on hard times, is the beneficiary of a rather large insurance policy if Tom dies accidentally.
He didn't, so they attempt to arrange the natural death as an accident, but the late Tom does not cooperate.
Only the prospective new female member can help.
"A new, knockabout comedy."
— The Oregonian
