This didn’t age too well lol. The main police detective is ‘famous� I assume from solving some high visibility crime cases in the past � we don’t go into why she’s so lauded, or if we did I missed it.
My main gripe was that this experienced detective seems to fall into immediate infatuation with a lady teacher, Sybil - and then has an affair with her while the case is still active and Sybil is still an active suspect. Despite never having a same-sex relationship before, Sybil also immediately falls in love with Carol.
One of the teachers was routinely having relationships with his students � which the staff and students all seemed to know but did nothing about. The way Carol’s police offsider talked about it was very dated � “Hell, Carol, you seen the girls around here? They look a million dollars and they’re not kids, you know. I can understand how Pagett felt.� (p47). The media reporting on the case, a reporter exclaimed � “nubile young beach goddesses from Bellwether High�. (p73) Ew.
The teachers were getting offers for exclusive interviews from ‘Behind the News� lol � I remember watching that at school.
I don't think I'll continue with the other 17 books in this series lol - though it was fun reading about a fictional Aussie detective in Sydney.
