This is actually quite a fun book! I love Diana Wynne Jones, I first read her Chrestomanci volumes and then had to read everything else she'd written, she's so entertaining! In this book, a note is found in the classroom of a rather strict school accusing someone in the class of being a witch-a serious matter, since being a witch is outlawed. There are so many twists and turns to the story, it's great! A must read!
