Annotation:	In spite of being ejected from Miss Bodycote�s Female Academy in Canada, twelve-year-old Flavia de Luce is excited to be sailing home to England. But instead of a joyous homecoming, she is greeted on the docks with unfortunate news: Her father has fallen ill, and a hospital visit will have to wait while he rests. But with Flavia�s blasted sisters and insufferable cousin underfoot, Buckshaw now seems both too empty�and not empty enough. Only too eager to run an errand for the vicar�s wife, Flavia hops on her trusty bicycle, Gladys, to deliver a message to a reclusive wood-carver. Finding the front door ajar, Flavia enters and stumbles upon the poor man�s body hanging upside down on the back of his bedroom door. The only living creature in the house is a feline that shows little interest in the disturbing scene. Curiosity may not kill this cat, but Flavia is energized at the prospect of a new investigation. It�s amazing what the discovery of a corpse can do for one�s spirits. But what awaits Flavia will shake her to the very core.
