A laugh-out-loud, nostalgic and heart-warming novel about the ups and downs of life at a fictional Yorkshire university, perfect for fans of James Herriot and Tom Sharpe. York, 1989. Beginning his second year as a tutor at the University of Eboracum, Dr Tom Frith is surprised to be paired as a âbuddy tutorâ for a new member of staff. At first, Dr Rosie Tremaine appears staunchly independent, and even standoffish. But as Rosie and Tom navigate the trials and tribulations of life on campus, they soon become firm friends. Whether theyâre investigating the shady practices of the new bursar or chasing down a rogue student suspected of being a Peeping Tom, university life is always full of surprises. Off campus, the whole faculty must rally together to support a colleague through a difficult time, while Tom has an important question for his girlfriend, Inger . . . *Readers love Jack Sheffield!'Itâs like a big comfort blanket . . .
