I rather like this one. Miss Seeton with schoolchildren is ripe with possibilities...and as usual, she (literally) falls into the answer to the cops' questions. But there are a lot of unpleasant characters involved here - on balance, not bad, but not my favorite. (

Book description

INTRODUCING MISS EMILY D SEETON

Retired art teacher Miss Seeton steps in where Scotland Yard stumbles. Armed only with her sketch pad and umbrella, she is every inch an eccentric English spinster and at every turn the most lovable and unlikely master of detection.
-----------------
A sudden interest in the occult swept through the English village of Plummergen, with Ouija Boards replacing the best china in many a cozy cottage. It might be quite the thing for maiden ladies and persnickety aunts, but it wasn't Miss Seeton's cup of tea... until Scotland Yard requested she go undercover to investigate some sinister shenanigans in the Kentish countryside.
A flim-flam was afoot in the local witches' covern ... and magic could be a prelude to murder most foul.
