I believe this is a British setting novel. The book time period is the 20th century. The book is probably more then 10 years old. The book is all about an older woman. The childrens rihyme applies to the story. The rhyme is all about a little girl with an hair curl in the middle of her forehead. When she was good she was good. When She was bad she was very very bad. I think this woman killed numerous people in the novel. Can someone help me?
