Words Fitly Spoken: The Hand on the Wall by Maureen Johnson

Hello! I am Laura Stewart here to review _The Hand on the Wall__ by _Maureen Johnson__ for in the stacks.

Stevie Bell solves the mystery that has haunted Ellingham Academy for over 75 years. She knows who Truly Devious is and all about the kidnapping of Albert Ellingham’s wife and daughter. But then David disappears, and someone else has died in town. How is everything related – or is it?

With a massive blizzard forecasted, Ellingham Academy evacuates students and teachers. What better place to wait out a storm than at the academy, with the killer? Stevie hides until the grounds are cleared, then sets out to solve the mystery, culminating into a finale that will keep you guessing until the very last page.

Stevie may be the most socially awkward, yet cunning sleuth alive – until she meets up with the killer at last.
