The Murders at Fleat House

"The Murders at Fleat House" by Lucinda Riley is a gripping crime story about the mysterious death of a pupil at a British boarding school.

St. Stephen's is a small boarding school in an idyllic and isolated part of Norfolk and its close-knit community is turned on its head, when the pupil Charlie Cavendish is found dead in Fleat House, the students' dorm. Even if the school's headmaster wishes to rule the death as an accident and close the case as soon as possible, the police can't rule out the possibility of murder. This brings the talented Detective Inspecter Jazz Hunter to Norfolk, when she is called in to solve the mystery at Fleat House.

Jazz is introduced to the insular world of an all-boys boarding school ruled by tradition, when she and her loyal Sergeant, Alastair Miles, start to question the closed-off faculty and students about Charlie's tragic death. Charlie turns out to have been a hated bully with many enemies, but his death is by no means easy to solve. 

Before long the school is further plagued by incidents, when a young student and an aging teacher suddenly disappear.

With "The Murders at Fleat House" Lucinda Riley, the author of the international bestselling Seven Sisters series, spins a gripping mystery story about a boarding school and its dark, long hidden secrets.
