Description

It always creates a bit of a stir when a new teacher starts school, especially when that teacher is young and handsome, like Mr Gunning. But why does he have an expensive car? And is he really who he seems? Chloe, Jessica, Kelly and Andrew think not and when Andrew claims he is sure Mr Gunning is a spy the gang just have to find out if that is the case. In a crime thriller for young readers Phil Barnes creates in My Teacher's a Spy! four children who start out simply trying to find out if their suspicions are true but who rapidly discover that the murky waters of intrigue are deeper than they thought. And when Andrew goes missing the girls must pull together, fight their tears and continue their detective course as one by one they, too, succumb to the criminal ... whoever he or she is.

Chapter 1
Memories of Christmas were fading fast, presents, Christmas dinner and the family together seemed to be becoming a thing of the past already. Though it had not snowed yet and by the look of the early morning sky was threatening to do so at any time, it was still bitterly cold and upon seeing your breath in the air made it feel colder. Chloe walked to school with her mum whilst her younger brother Archie lagged behind praying for snow, Chloe didn’t usually walk with her mum and brother to school but today was the start of a new term and her mum liked to take them on day one.
With the holidays over and a new school term about to begin, Chloe was excited to be able to see her friends and exchange gossip whilst comparing Christmas presents. She had spoken to Jessica and Kelly during the holidays but nothing beat getting back together, she had known them since day one of school and now they were in Year 6, 11 years old and would be moving up to Senior School in September.
“Come on Archie,” called Mum for about the dozenth time already, “we’ll be late at this rate.” Chloe shook her head wondering how her and Archie were related, they were nothing alike and never agreed on anything but he did make her laugh, in fact he made everyone laugh, he was contagious she thought and smiled whilst he caught up.
“Right, now let’s get a move on,” said Mum.
“Will it snow today?” asked Archie.
“Looks very likely,” Mum replied, the grin on Archie’s face spread from ear to ear and he started to list all the things he would do in the snow before the day was out. Chloe was not bothered about the snow, she felt she was too old to be running around in the snow, making snowmen and sledging.
Getting back to normal school life was appealing after the laziness of Christmas, Chloe hated being sat around doing nothing, her brain was always on the go and she had an active imagination. They reached the school gates with a couple of minutes to spare and upon reaching the gate Jessica, Kelly and Andrew were waiting for her, Andrew was the fourth friend in their gang, he wasn’t like other boys, he was not bothered about football but instead loved to write and like the three girls had a very vivid imagination.
Archie ran off as soon as they were through the gate before mum had a chance to kiss him goodbye, Chloe said her goodbyes and joined her friends, let the gossiping commence she thought as Jessica turned to the group, “I’ve heard a rumour that we have a new teacher in school,” she started.
“Really,” said Kelly.
“It’s true,” Andrew added, “I saw a new car in the teachers’ car park this morning, a black golf.”
“You and cars,” said Chloe, “doesn’t mean we have a new teacher, could be an old teacher with a new car.” Before anyone could answer the bell sounded to indicate the start of the new day, “We will see,” said Andrew, “we will see...”
Chapter 2
As the friends made their way in to class the school was buzzing as children exchanged gossip, compared Christmas presents and laughed with friends they had not seen for a couple of weeks. The register was completed quickly and the class began to settle in for the new school term but before they had got ready for the first lesson of the day Miss Edwards addressed the class.
“Class,” she began, “I know we normally have assembly on a Friday but today there are some important announcements, so if you could follow me quietly to the hall for morning assembly.” Everyone rose from their seats, Chloe looked at Andrew who wore a smug grin on his face as if to say I told you so, she smiled back thinking Andrew is nosier and gossips more than anyone I’ve ever met .
They made their way to the hall as all the classes in school did and took their seats on the benches at the back, being in Year 6 had this one advantage in assembly but being slightly higher up than the rest of the school meant not only greater comfort but you also got noticed easily, which they had found out a few times and had been told off for talking during assembly. Chloe remembered easier days when they would talk and laugh during assembly whilst enjoying the cover of being hidden amongst Years 3, 4 and 5 sat crossed legged on the floor, she sighed and squidged up closer to Jessica.
