Trouble at the Little Village School

Elisabeth Devine certainly rocked the boat when she arrived in Barton-in-the Dale to take over as head teacher of the little primary school. Now it's a new term, and after winning over the wary locals, she can finally settle in to her role. Or so she thinks ... For the school is hit by a brand-new bombshell: it's to be merged with its arch rival, and Elisabeth has to fight for the headship with Urebank's ruthless and calculating headmaster. Add in some gossip and a helping of scandal, and that's not the only trouble that's brewing in the village.
