When bachelor Tom Thorne is appointed Headmaster of a West London prepschool he has to contend with pushy parents and eccentric and rebellious teachers. Close encounters with single mum Anita in the school darkroom - and elsewhere - develop. He wonders whether he will ever be able to move the school forward? Then an adventure, a way to escape. Tom is offered and accepts an appointment as Head of a school in Nairobi, Kenya, where there are very different problems - angry hippos, lions on the games fields, leopards in the garden and snakes in the art room. The beauty and poverty of Africa is enthralling but security is an obvious problem. He starts a family.
