In the first Teddy Thurber mystery, English teacher Theodora “Teddy” Thurber seeks answers after the murder of one of her former students. The victim, Jessica Halliday, had been one of Teddy’s most promising pupils before she graduated from St. James High School, and her sudden death by strangulation upsets the entire school community.
