Publisher Description: In this exclusive authorized edition from the Queen of Mystery, murder is part of the curriculum at an exclusive school for girls, and the intrepid Poirot sets out to bring a stealthy killer to justice.

Unfortunately, schoolgirl Julia Upjohn knows too much. In particular, she knows that without Hercule Poirot's help, she will be the next victim.... |
