Miss Withers can't get away from murder
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Miss Hidegarde Withers, strong-minded New York schoolteacher, has a way of getting involved in solving murders, and this time the murder is very close to home, in the school in which she teaches. A young and lovely teacher has been murdered, and possibly others will follow unless Miss Withers and Inspector Oscar Piper can solve the case. As always, there is an exciting story and lots of interesting and eccentric characters, with amusing sparring between Miss Withers and Inspector Piper. These books are always fun to read, the Inspector and Miss Withers never disappoint.
This book is worth searching for.

Palmer writes with a flare that is seldom seen now-a-days.He was ahead of his time. He gives a strong female character in a time when there was little or no interest in women who were independant. The story is full of red herrings that draw you into story and shocks you with the climatic death of the murderer. The characters all a more than they same from the simplist urchin to the most complex criminologist. Here's to hoping for many reprints of all of Palmer's novels.
