Dear Miss Demeanor (Claire Malloy, Bk 3) Author:Joan Hess
Book Description:
The scandals mount in Farberville, Arkansas when a respected teacher is fired for pilfering petty cash and suggestive letters are sent to the local advice columnist. Murder of the high school principal is absolutely the last straw, and Claire Malloy, in her third outing in this acclaimed mystery series, gets a notion to do some detecting. But the killer is still out there and has some unfinished business...
Farberville bookstore owner Claire Malloy and her drama-queen 15 year old daughter, Caron, return. This time , much to her dismay, Claire's services as a substitute journalism teacher/newspaper editor have been volunteered by her daughter. Knowing Claire as we do, we shouldn't be surprised that she manages to stumble across a dead body. Written with Ms. Hess's usual dry humor and sassy dialogue.
