Synopsis
"After the murder of a teacher at the school, Bellehaven has almost returned to normalcy, with the girls back on the tennis courts and the scullery maids sneaking into town. All's well until Headmistress Meredith Llewellyn--a proper young widow who always thought ghosts a mere fancy of the insane--sees her second spirit. This little-girl ghost dearly wants to be reunited with her family. Deeply pained, Meredith begins investigating their deaths, but as sinisted secrets are revealed, Meredith grows more than a little wary of snooping into what might be another murder. For a true lady never goes anywhere uninvited..."--p. [4] of cover.
