Book excerpt: Can anyone British teach English as a foreign language? It's murder...."Adroit, inspiring, and written with a rare lightness of touch,"--The London Times Literary Supplement "Believable plotting, a memorable cast of characters, and three--count 'em--three beguiling sleuths in a warm, gently raunchy, crisp, and literate caper."--Kirkus Reviews "Amiss is bumblingly appealing and howlingly funny."--The Chicago Sun Times. He's also a civil servant down on his luck and out of a job--and thus ripe for a post as a police spy at the Knightsbridge School. Robert's cover will be to teach English as a foreign language. His mission soon becomes, well, murder...."Quirky, highly intelligent, and thoroughly entertaining...." --The Washington Post Book World
