About this book

This volume contains three novels. 1. Miss Lucy Pym, a popular English psychologist, is guest lecturer at a physical training college. The year's term is nearly over, and Miss Pym detects a furtiveness in the behavior of one student during a final exam. She prevents the girl from cheating by destroying her crib notes. But Miss Pym's cover-up of one crime precipitates another -- a fatal "accident" that only her psychological theories can prove was really murder. 2. Brat Farrar has been carefully coached to assume the identity of Patrick Ashby, heir to the Ashby fortune who disappeared when he was 13. Just when it seems that Brat will pull off the deception, he discovers the truth about Patrick's disappearance, a dark secret that threatens to tear apart the family and jeopardize Brat's carefully laid plans. 3.Inspector Alan Grant is recuperating in a hospital and bored to distraction until he comes across a contemporary portrait of Richard III, the hunchbacked monster of nursery stories and history books. He finds a face that refuses to fit its reputation. His subsequently investigates the 400-year-old murder of the Little Princes in the Tower.
