No End to Trouble by Marianna Heusler
A St. Polycarp School Mystery (3rd in series)
Publisher: Hilliard & Harris
Price: $2.99 (as of 08/10/2015 at 6:30 PM ET).
Father Felix, Head master and parish priest at St. Polycarp Church and school has been called to serve the Vatican in Rome. Although a great honor for Father Felix, it has less than happy consequences for his loyal teachers and staff at St. Polycarp elementary school.
The new Principal is a Mrs. Logan formerly from St. Judes. She's a severe, no-nonsense administrator who has a strict code of conduct for the teachers. Sensible shoes, conservative clothes, hair kept up in a ponytail to avoid head-lice and no chocolate.
For Mrs. Hopwood, a flashy dresser, stiletto heel fan and a chocolate lover the news is terrible. She and her fellow teacher, Mrs. Johnson, are filled with dread. To make matters worse, Mrs. Logan is bringing in new teachers, a new secretary — Miss Turnipseed who has a decidedly un-friendly attitude — and new assignments — different grade levels. Horrifying! Mrs. Hopwood is moving from the sweet security of the second grade to the scary prepubescence of the fifth. Dreadful!
The two friends and amateur sleuths — or busy bodies in Father Felix's opinion — have faced many trials at St. Polycarp — the dreadful murder of a seventh grade teacher before class and a summer school field trip to Sicily with a group of obnoxious girls from St. Hilda's where the killer who stalked them through the catacombs was almost as scary as their charges. So when a cafeteria lady dies mysteriously during Parents' night, Mrs. Hopwood and Mrs. Johnson have a dual mission — to find a sadistic murderer without getting fired — or killed.
