After twenty-five years of single-minded determination, Marianne Gordon has finally achieved her ambition and been promoted to Principal of the Vesper School for Zero-Gravity Artistic Display.
But her moment of triumph is cut short when she discovers that she must share her position with Josephine Knight, a celebrated zero-gravity performer who doesn't know the first thing about teaching. Deeply insulted, Marianne does her best to carry on as though Jo isn't there, but Jo has a way of making her presence felt.
When the future of Marianne's beloved school is threatened, Jo may be the only person who can help but only if Marianne can learn to let her in.
