<DIV><DIV><B>Schoolteacher sleuth Miss Withers finds a dead body during detention in this mystery starring &ldquo;one of the world&rsquo;s shrewdest and most amusing detectives&rdquo; (<I>The New York Times</I>).</B><BR /><BR /> Anise Halloran is young to be teaching school, and much too pretty, but third-grade teacher Hildegarde Withers is not the sort to condemn a coworker just because she wears high heels. When she overhears nine-year-old Buster Jones spreading rumors about Miss Halloran being sweet on the principal, Miss Withers orders the schoolyard quarterback to write <I>discipline</I> on the chalkboard one hundred times. Anise Halloran stays late after school, too. In fact, she stays forever.</DIV><DIV><BR /> Miss Withers finds Anise in the cloakroom, her head bashed in, and her high heels strewn across the floor. She sends Buster to fetch Inspector Piper, the hard-nosed detective whom she occasionally assists with murder inquiries, but by the time he arrives, the body has vanished. There is a killer inside the elementary school, and Buster Jones is not the only person whom Miss Withers will have to teach a lesson about discipline.</DIV></DIV>
