      Kto zavraždil učiteľku v dievčenskej internátnej škole? A kde sa stratilo telo? Daisy a Hazel sa rozhodnú založiť si tajný detektívny spolok. Na nudnej internátnej škole sa však nič zvláštne nedeje, ak nepočítame stratenú kravatu spolužiačky Lavinie. Potom však Hazel objaví v telocvični bezvládne telo slečny Bellovej. Keď sa o pár minút vráti spolu s Daisy, telo je preč. Dievčatám je hneď jasné, že je na nich, aby tento záhadný prípad vyriešili. Musia nájsť vinníka, no v prvom rade o spáchaní zločinu všetkých presvedčiť, pretože na prvý pohľad sa predsa vôbec nič nestalo...

Also travelling on the SS Hatshepsut is a mysterious society called the Breath of Life: a group of genteel English ladies and gentlemen, who believe themselves to be reincarnations of the ancient pharaohs. Three days into the cruise their leader, Theodora Miller, is found dead in her cabin, stabbed during the night. It soon becomes clear to Daisy and Hazel that Theodora's timid daughter Hephzibah, who is prone to sleepwalking, is being framed. And within the society, everyone has a reason to want Theodora dead.
