Synopsis

Liverton Ladies’ Academy teaches Britain’s finest young women etiquette, deportment and … murder?

England, 1922. At a sprawling Devonshire estate, surrounded by wealthy girls targeting excellent marriages, Lady Felicity Quick has abandoned her exciting, hard-won career in journalism to teach letter-writing and table manners at an exclusive finishing school…

Except nothing is as it seems.

Answering an irresistible plea for help, Felicity is undercover, hunting a Great War spy who betrayed the British and cost countless lives. Between lessons in dance, French, and flower arranging, Felicity edges closer to unmasking her foe, but then chaos erupts: a body is found. Are more sinister schemes afoot than first thought?

With the students’ futures under threat and a promise made to loved ones to fulfil, Felicity is determined to uncover the truth — even if dodging deadly perils was never part of her lesson plan.

Delve into the secrets of Liverton Ladies’ Academy in this gripping 1920s English mystery!

Full of twists, humour, and unique characters, Murder at a Boarding School is perfect for readers who love the bold lady sleuths of Verity Bright and Magda Alexander and the cosy British settings of Helena Dixon and classic Agatha Christie.
