    [synopsis] => A librarian with deceptively dangerous skills is sent back in time to Tzarist Russia in this "laugh-out-loud farce" and homage to Muriel Spark (Publishers Weekly, starred review).



Never underestimate a librarian. Comfortable padded and in her middle years, Shona McMonagle may look bookish and harmless, but her education at the Marcia Blaine School for Girls has left her with a deadly expertise in everything from martial arts to quantum physics. It has also left her with a bone-deep loathing for The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, that scurrilous novel that spread scandalous untruths about the finest educational institution in Edinburgh. 



Shona's skills, her deceptively mild appearance, and her passionate loyalty make her the perfect recruit for an interesting new project: time travel to Tzarist Russia, prevent a gross miscarriage of romance, and-in any spare time-see to it that only the right people get murdered. It's a big job, but no task is too daunting for a prefect from Miss Blaine's.
