Nasty goings-on in a Southend comprehensive, which seems to have an abundance of nasty little worms, most notable of which is 'The Blob'. When he gets shut out of the changing rooms minus his clothes a web of intrigue and skulduggery is set in train involving pupils, staff and caretakers alike. It makes very funny, compelling reading but some of the spiky verbal wit might be lost on all but the brightest, most sophisticated readers. My department and I appreciated it!!
