About This Book

A group of girls at a country boarding school find their routine disrupted by a mysterious noise and an apparently empty room, prompting two friends to investigate on behalf of a classmate whose inheritance may be hidden. Suspicions fall on a longtime housekeeper, and the search leads through secret nooks, riddles, and surprising alliances. Alongside lessons, walks, and school pastimes, the narrative balances light mystery with themes of loyalty, friendship, and moral choice as the girls piece together clues and confront the consequences of their discoveries.
