Synopsis: Something very strange is going on in the S.T.A.R.S. sixth-form common room. Jules and Taz are fine - they're engrossed in a new anti-racism manifesto for the school. Raffy is still the same old Raffy - he's busy bugging Toby about the sixth-form magazine, Sixth Censored. Colette is wearing lots of hats all of a sudden. But the really strange thing is Sam and Ella's behaviour. What's going on? Sam has these chronic stomach pains, though nobody seems to believe he's really ill. Add to that his problems with Vinny, the school's resident yob, and things look pretty bleak. He wants some support from Ella, but she's too preoccupied with her own worries. First a disastrous haircut, then something much more serious ... This is the eighth book in the S.T.A.R.S. sequence. Every month there is a new, self-contained story, all about the same group of sixth formers. S.T.A.R.S. is based on reality, taking you inside a modern London comprehensive. It's funny, action-packed and full of great characters. Join now. The common-room door is always open.
