Summary: Girls' school murder
Comment: During the end of the year ceremonies at Meldon School for Girls, one of the former students (the "old girl" from the title) criticizes the new administration, the new teaching staff, the new curriculum. But the headmaster is used to Beatrice Baynes' objections and takes no notice. But someone must take notice when her dead body is found in the art building.

There are lots of suspects: the headmaster herself, the art teacher and her patron, the goddaughter and the nephew of the victim. Scotland Yard, in the form of Inspector Pollard and Sergeant Toye, must untangle all the motives and see who the real murderer is.

I enjoyed this book. I like the English mysteries. The setting is completely foreign to me, since I know nothing about private (or as they call it, Public) school. But I liked it anyway.
