Rating: 5 Stars

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 .

Have I mentioned recently how much I am loving these St Brides books. I am completely and utterly hooked and they are barely having a chance to land on my kindle before I am reading the next one.  I really hope there will be more to this series than just these first three books. 

There is certainly a few gently mysteries for Gemema Lamb to look into this time, why is someone cutting things from the local newspaper, just what stories is being hidden, and just what exactly is the stranger she ends up having tea with on the first weekend of term really up to?

Not to mention one of the pupils being front and centre of a really touching in the end storyline, although it had me worried at one point. 

And I loved catching up with Hairnett, Joe and Oriana especially, as we learn more about all of their pasts and presents. 

This book and the whole series, just feels as though it is like a Malory towers for grown ups with just a tad more intrigue, and i just love everything about them.  

More please.... after all I couldn't put this one down, and couldn't get enough of it, so definitely want more! 

Thank you to Boldwood Books and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
