About this ebook

A suspicious death at a British public school calls for Sergeant Beef! When a student is found hanged in the gymnasium, the local coroner calls it suicide. But Sergeant Beef suspects foul play. To get to the bottom of things, Beef takes a temporary job as school caretaker, with reluctant help from his brother, a master at the school, and his biographer, Townsend.

Beef's investigation involves endless games of darts and pints at the local pub, much to Townsend's dismay. But when another remarkably similar murder occurs, Beef must use all his wits to uncover the truth. Can he solve the mystery before another student dies?

Perfect for fans of classic British mysteries and those who enjoy a touch of humor with their crime fiction.
