The second book in the prize winning mystery series. It's Halloween at Saint Smithen's. When the Brimwell town hall burns down, the amateur production of Macbeth is moved to the school and it's all hands on deck. But when the play is struck by a series of mysterious attacks, it's up to Poppy, her friends and her circus family to save the play and unmask the culprit. Perfect for younger fans of A Murder Most Unladylike and older Enid Blyton stories The first book was the winner of the Montegrappa Scholastic New Children's writing Prize (2015), chosen from almost 1,000 entries Exciting, funny and adventurous, Poppy Pym blends a classic boarding school story with a quirky circus family and a thrilling smuggling mystery
Reviews
This was such a great book; it was very interesting, and amusing too. It could definitely give you a shudder that slides down your spine at times, but it has a sense of humor - which is great - and it is very thought-through. I would recommend it to anyone who loves mystery - and someone who likes a book that keepa a chill in their mind throughout the entire day, and who DOESN'T peek at the end of the story!
