Finch
was really surprised when Prunella "Pruneface" Hooper came to a

resurrect feuds, and season it all with downright lies. Almost everyone

skills (and her insight into uncovering the true goodness of human nature
(make the experience of unraveling the mystery "as cozy as a warm
fire on a winter's night" (Denver Post). |
