Amanda Pepper is a full-time English teacher at Philly Prep devoted to her job and her pupils--warts and all. This concern can lead to trouble in surprising ways as here, when an innocuous offer to help sort books for a school fund-raiser leads her to a sordid story of emotional and physical abuse among Philadelphia's upper crust.

Another great entry in this series. Amanda Pepper is such a great character. Smart as Nancy Drew, but wickedly funny!
