With the beginning of a new school year under way, Peter 'Mad Max' Maxwell prepares to get stuck into his routine. The immediate task in hand for senior staff members is the hiring of a new assistant head teacher, for which the school caterers have prepared a private buffet. But during the lunch meeting, disaster strikes, as guests and staff alike become seriously ill in a matter of minutes. After being reluctantly thrust into the role of acting headmaster, Maxwell works in conjunction with the police to try to unravel the mystery. But with certain fingers pointing at him is Maxwell in more danger than he thinks?
