"An old-school (in every sense) yarn... Bishop pulls
it off with humour and aplomb." Financial Times
A captivating boarding school mystery from Sylvia Bishop,
author of Erica's Elephant, The Bookshop Girl
and The Secret of the Night Train.
Transplanted from her exciting life as an explorer's daughter,
Freya finds herself miserable at a posh
boarding school. Freya hates all the boring rules, the
other girls are mean to her, and the headmistress is frosty good
manners personified.
When a bat removal expert is called in to deal
with an infestation, Freya meets his irrepressible children - and
finds herself making friends at last. Together they explore the
city, with particular interest in the grand exhibition
showing priceless artefacts for the first time.
When the objects are stolen in a dramatic heist,
Freya is sure her new friends are responsible - but the true
culprit might be closer to home...
Warm, witty and packed full of gorgeous characters, this is a
boarding school mystery with a twist.
Perfect for fans of Robin Stevens' Murder Most Unladylike
series
Sylvia Bishop is the author of The Bookshop Girl, The
Secret of the Night Train, and Erica's Elephant
