Bored with her wealthy life after the Great War, aristocratic wife and mother Dandy Gilver decides to become a private investigator. Her current case has her traveling to an all-girls school in the Scottish seaside town of Portpatrick where a childhood friend has disappeared. Soon, Dandy discovers that her missing chum, now a teacher, is not the only thing that’s off in Portpatrick. Other teachers have been vanishing as well . . . at an alarming rate. To find some answers, Dandy must go undercover as a new member of the staff, but one misstep could have her dismissed permanently . . . “Fans of historical mysteries and old-fashioned whodunits will enjoy Dandy Gilver and a Bothersome Number of Corpses. . . . A very satisfying whodunit that was both intriguing and creepy.” —Gumshoe Review |
