December 1937. Daphne King is attending the 20th anniversary reunion at her secondary school, Midwinter Academy, a weekend that will see resurrected rivalries and alliances amidst the Christmas festivities. But a string of peculiar incidents prompts Daphne to suspect that she and her friends are being sent messages - or threats - related to the disappearance of a classmate 20 years ago. It was a mystery which clouded their final year at the school - and one which Daphne, as a budding 18-year-old sleuth, solved. When, the morning after the reunion, one of Daphne's old school friends is found dead, Daphne finds herself in the role of investigator once more. Are the two cases linked? And has Daphne learned from the mistakes of her past? Show more
