The Falcon and the Co-Eds (1943)

The enigmatic Tom Lawrence, also known as 'The Falcon,' steps into the mysterious echelons of the Bluecliff School for Young Ladies at the behest of an earnest student. Donning the dual roles of a lecturer and an insurance investigator, he plunges into the dark labyrinth of a suspicious death that has the school's faculty on edge. The death, shrouded in whispers of murder and suicide, promises a cover-up as intricate as the school's hallowed halls. The deceased, a professor with a penchant for poetry, leaves behind a trail of intrigue connecting him to several of the school's female faculty members and a handful of their attractive students. The Falcon soon finds himself ensnared in a web of secrets and unspoken desires, where every turn reveals a new suspect. A particular co-ed, blessed – or cursed – with eerily accurate premonitions, becomes a beacon of light in uncovering the truth. Her second vision, foreseeing a death as brutal as it is bizarre, plunges the school into further chaos when the dean is discovered, slain by a sword. As the Falcon delves deeper into the mystery, he finds himself embroiled in a scandal that threatens to consume the reputation of the esteemed institution. The enigma of the professor's death looms larger than ever, and the line between murder and suicide blurs. With every revelation, the Falcon realizes the deadly game he's playing is far from a simple suicide. The quiet halls of Bluecliff School echo with secrets, and it's up to the Falcon to unravel the mystery before the murderer strikes again.
