When he gets home from visiting his new best friend, a young boy finds a letter mysteriously tucked into the pocket of his coat. The letter is his first encounter with romantic love. And, perhaps, his last. The notes a middle-aged teacher receives out-of-the -blue are brutally to-the-point and increasingly threatening. Meanwhile a young girl faces a false accusation and learns something bitter about class and power, while a boy not much older than her travels North by train to meet the mother he'd always been told was dead. Years later, a wife hits on an innovative money-making idea while an anxious newly qualified teacher struggles to find any ideas at all as to how to teach 'Macbeth' to a difficult class and an older colleague puzzles about what to do with a boy who demands to attach a tail to his school uniform. Years earlier an auxiliary policeman travels by motorbike to arrest a German pilot captured after crashing in a Welsh farmer's field.
