From the first day that the beguiling Sheba Hart joins the staff of St George's, history teacher Barbara Covett is convinced that she has found a kindred spirit. Barbara's loyalty to her new friend is passionate and when Sheba is discovered having an illicit affair with one of her young pupils, Barbara elects herself as Sheba's chief defender.
