Product Description

Product Description
Jinx Slater is delighted to have reached the giddy heights of the lower sixth at Stagmount, England's most exclusive school for girls. Her ground-floor window affords her an excellent view of Brighton's bright lights, and Jinx is a girl with escape on her mind and a miniature screw driver kit in her tuckbox. Liberty Latiffe, Jinx's best friend and all round perfect partner-in-crime, is not at all worried about being caught out by her very strict Muslim father. Nor are the rest of the girls. Until, that is, Stella Fox - Stagmount's newest new girl - arrives, determined to make her mark.

About the Author
Following her MA, Sara Lawrence became a journalist, contributing to The Times, Daily Mail, Independent and Daily Express among others. This is her first novel. The TV rights are in development by Initial/Endemol. Sara is also working on DUMBASS, a company formed with Julie Burchill.

4.0 out of 5 stars easy read, lots of fun, 12 Nov 2007

I found this very easy going, and very entertaining.
A hilarious update of the boarding school books I read when I was younger.

5.0 out of 5 stars High heels, high spirits and low morals, 30 Oct 2007
God do I love these girls: Jinx, Liberty and the whole slutty, lipsticked lot of them. And what an ogre she's given us in old whiskery Gunn! A joy--an unashamed romp! And for Brightonians, like myself, it's an homage to our seeedy Sodom-on-Sea.

5.0 out of 5 stars High Jinx, 27 Sep 2007
By F Wookey (London) - See all my reviews
This book is hilarious, at times I was actually laughing out loud! A highly enjoyable read, and definitely worth checking out, think the literary equivalent of Skins meets St Trinians. You won't be able to put it down.
