Colonel Fawcett was Sir Michael Gray's friend, but he borrowed $50,000 from him and lost it gambling. Angela Everett was his secretary, she loved money and thought that his boss left her $100,000. Finally, Nancy Flack was the family's housekeeper; she wanted to keep the family together and stop the secretary of running away with Sir Michael Gray. Who murdered Sir Michael Gray? K the detective has to find out the answer. The murdered used a mechanism created by the victim that uses a bow to throw a sharp icicle into Sir Michael Gray's heart.

This story is very well written, and it keeps you in suspense until the end.

Esta bien,como era de esperar ya intuía quien era el asesino desde que leí la página de los personajes pero me pareció normal, es una “historia” para leer cuando no tenes nada que hacer y ningún libro para leer” obviamente es una lectura corta y fácil y te la terminas en media hora o un poco más.

Fue el segundo libro que leí en inglés y fue una lectura escolar. El lenguaje es bastante claro y básico. La historia es sencilla y rápida de leer.

It's a general mystery novel, but I enjoyed having the feeling that I had been solving the case with the main character who is a detective. It was interesting that the book has some illustrations like manga.

7-word summary
K- detective- murder- 5people- locked- mistery- solve

Q1. Do you like mystery books?
A1. Yes, I do. But my favorite books are love stories. Mystery books are interesting, but they are diffucult to think.

Q2. Have you ever seen detectives?
A1. No, I haven't. I only see them on TV. "Meitantei Konan" is very interesting animation.

I could enjoy reading this book. There are a lot of pictures in this book, so I could understand the situation easily. I could't solve this mystery. I want to try other mystery books.

Of course money is important, but to get large amount of money is not real happiness for our life!

I hardly think about that, but if my favorite person is injured or killed by someone, I may have that feeling.

This is a kind of mystery story and very easy to understand it because there are a lot of pictures in this book. The main character, Katrina Kirby is a smart woman detective. She listens to the story from 5 people who are supposed to kill the man. I was surprised the trick of dangerous weapon which killed old man because it was little complicated. But it was good book.
