Miranda Piker is a character cut from the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl. She was known for being a snob of sorts, or a tattletale, and thus her connections to the Seven Deadly Sins would probably be Pride. Her birthplace is unknown, but it was implied she was British, as her father was a headmaster and was referred to as such.

Reasons for Removal

The chapter seemed to hint at or imply cannibalism with the two Pikers, and hence, publishers demand it be removed immediately. Her existence was unknown until recently, when the chapter entitled Spotty Powder was found in Dahl's desk, written in mirror script. It was published in The Times July 23, 2005.
