A gripping cozy murder mystery from Debbie Young
"A cracking example of cozy crime!" Katie Fforde

Sophie Sayers is ready for a glorious summer, but when a dead body is found in the village school's lost property cupboard the summer holidays take an unexpected turn.

Even more shocking is when the body suddenly goes missing! The police think the villagers are mistaken and without a body, refuse to investigate.

But with the village school facing the threat of closure, Sophie is determined to get to the bottom of the mystery. But first she needs to find out who the dead person is, before she can start to find the killer!

Perfect for fans of M C Beaton's Agatha Raisin and Hamish Macbeth series.
