One of her panicked siblings asks childhood friend, society lady - and sometimes detective - Dandy Gilver to find Fleur and ensure she is safe.But dark secrets line the hallways of this academy. Teachers have been disappearing abruptly in the dead of night, a sense of terror pervades the formerly cheerful seaside town and, almost inevitably, a body washes ashore.

Recensioner i media

1930s lady detective Dandy Gilver lands a sleuthing gig in a setting straight out of Enid Blyton,. Cosier than a pair of WI-knitted mittens, 'Corpses' serves up murder most foul - and is also good for several giggles.
