This is an enjoyable but lightweight girls school story, first published 90 years ago and rather showing it. The characters and their conflicts are drawn fairly simplistically and I did slightly lose track of who was who apart from the central two or three. There is a bit of a tendency for exciting things to happen for the convenience of the plot rather than believably arising from the actions of characters.

Dedication

TO PSYCHE ALTHAM

First words

The private 'bus from Westover drew up with a crunching of gravel and jarring of brakes before the pillared portico of the Jane Willard Foundation, and out scrambled school-girls, big and llittle, a merry laughing crowd, to be seized upon and borne off by friends who had already arrived
