Steven" - that being beloved juvenile fiction author Katherine M. Yates, author of the magical A Tale From the Rainbow land and a number of other titles. Yates presumably took the pseudonym for this one because it was her first venture into detective/mystery fiction, being the tale of two troublesome sisters diving into a Hawaiian mystery, and this was at the time a bit off her established track. Not to worry - it turned out just fine; remarkable and charming fiction. Books with Yates' signature are extremely scarce, yet it is here twice, with a nice Hawaiian inscription. L19n.
