But before the packet reaches its destination the prince and the pilot are both dead. T o the people after the jewels, murder is a small price for jewels worth millions of pounds. Then a frightened girl brings Hercule Poirot one of the most challenging cases of his long and brilliant career: A killer is terrorizing a famous school for girls; an unsuspecting student has become a magnet for evil and death. Somehow the two cases are linked and only Poirot can solve this double mystery.
