Miss Pym Disposes
Author(s): Josephine Tey
Miss Lucy Pym, a popular English psychologist, is guest lecturer at a physical training college. The year's term is nearly over, and Miss Pym -- inquisitive and observant -- detects a furtiveness in the behavior of one student during a final exam. She prevents the girl from cheating by destroying her crib notes. But Miss Pym's cover-up of one crime precipitates another -- a fatal "accident" that only her psychological theories can prove was really murder.
Review(s):
The New Yorker Tey's style and her knack for creating bizarre characters are among the best in the field.
The Saturday Review Elegantly written, leisurely, amusing, penetrating with a thumping terminal surprise!
