About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The year is 1976, and Jack Sheffield never wants to leave his job.

Jack has been the deputy head teacher at Newbridge Primary School for six years now, and he's happy exactly where he is - even if it sometimes feels like there are a few things missing from his life. After all, the kids keep him busy and there's always a game of rugby to play.

But it's a time of change, and Jack's world is no exception. New and old faces appear in his life, and a romance blossoms, bringing with it a buried secret and hidden threat. Soon, Jack must make a decision as to where his future is heading and prepare to face whatever change is yet to come....

A classic Jack Sheffield tale, ready to transport you back to a simpler time.

School days

What a very disappointing listen.
I found the narrator so poor. It really spoilt the story with his so called northern accent. It was just dreadful. I wouldn’t recommend this one. Such a pity as I usually enjoy Jack Shepherds audiobooks.
