is delighted when she's asked to cater Founders' Day at Southwood School. It's the best - and most secretive - school for miles around, and Eve can't wait to see what it's really like. But when she arrives, the atmosphere is far from scholarly. Natalie Somerson, ex-pupil and professional gossip, is the guest of honour, but nobody seems to want her there... especially when her speech stirs up an old scandal about a secret love affair.
The next morning, Natalie is found dead in a locked attic room. To make matters worse, Eve's boyfriend Robin becomes the police's prime suspect. Determined to prove his innocence, Eve starts to investigate everyone with a stake in the school. Is it the prudish principal, worried about Natalie's influence? Her former teacher, whose life Natalie made miserable? Or the head girl, who seemed to hate Natalie one day and adore her the next?
When strange letters arrive at the school and Eve finds a bottle of Natalie's perfume in the most unexpected place, she senses time is running out to save Robin's good name. Eve had better study her suspects and unmask the real killer...
