Gemma is pretty cheesed off...a distant relative has left her family some money and her parents are sending her to a posh boarding school so she won?t see all her mates for ages. Things go from bad to worse with Gemma's too-shy roommate Ruth and the vicious-but-pretty school bully Sara. But things look up when for Gemma when she's chosen as a Zodiac Girl. With her own fighting spirit and some sage zodiacal advice she negotiates her crazy new world of boarding school rituals, salon makeovers, manic dogs, old folks' homes, school play auditions and much more. Will she come out on top?
