New York Times best-selling publisher Maureen Johnson weaves a delicate tale of murder and puzzle in the first book of a attractive new series, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie and E. Lockhart. Ellingham Academy is a famous private school in Vermont for the brightest thinkers, inventors, and painters. It was founded by Albert Ellingham, an early 20th hundred years tycoon, who wished to make a wonderful place packed with riddles, twisting pathways, and gardens. "A place", he said, "where learning is a casino game." Shortly after the institution opened, his wife and little girl were kidnapped. The only real idea was a mocking riddle listing methods of murder, signed with the scary pseudonym "Truly, Devious". It became one of the fantastic unsolved offences of American background. True-crime aficionado Stevie Bell is set to commence her first season at Ellingham Academy, and she's an ambitious plan: She will solve this chilly case. That is, she will solve the truth when she gets a hold on her challenging new school life and her housemates: the inventor, the novelist, the actor, the artist, and the jokester. But something weird is happening. Truly Devious makes a surprise return, and death revisits Ellingham Academy. Days gone by has crawled away of its grave. Someone has received away with murder. The two interwoven mysteries of this first book in the Truly Devious series dovetail brilliantly, and Stevie Bell will continue her relentless search for the murderers in books two and three.
