'A delight from start to finish' Juliette Lawson

Gemma Lamb is ready for an uneventful term at St Bride's, she's had enough of dastardly deeds and sinister strangers.

However, she's barely back at school before:

Unlucky in love Oriana is sneaking around at odd hours

Handsome Joe is keeping secrets

Militant Mavis feels a scandal is brewing

It's all a bit much, so when a stranger appears, Gemma thinks she's had enough. But this stranger isn't so sinister, instead he looks rather too familiar. If Gemma can't get him away from the school the whispers and scandal his presence could unleash may just close St Bride's doors for good.

Gemma's joined forces with her colleagues to save the school in the past, but this time she's going to have to do it on her own...

For anyone who loved St Trinian's – old or new – or loves a cozy mystery on a grand estate filled with rather 'interesting' characters.
