A lethal lesson / Iona Whishaw.

Summary:

"Back in King's Cove after her Arizona honeymoon, Lane offers her assistance when neither the outgoing teacher, Rose, nor her replacement, Wendy, show up at the local schoolhouse one blizzardy Monday in December. She finds the teachers' cottage ransacked with Rose unconscious and bleeding, and Wendy missing. After turning the case over to her exasperated husband, Inspector Darling, Lane enlists as substitute teacher for the final two weeks before the Christmas holidays. During her brief tenure at the school Lane discovers a threatening note in the teachers' desk and a revolver in the supply cupboard. But these clues only convolute the case further. Who has been tormenting these women? Meanwhile, Darling finds the body of a hit-and-run victim in a snowbank miles outside of Nelson, and Sergeant Ames is as confused as ever by the inimitable Tina Van Eyck."--Back cover.
