Ballet School Rumours: An Amberwood Hall Ballet School Adventure by Eleanor Dixon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It is a new term at Amberwood Hall Ballet School and Lauren and Katie are excited to talk all about their holidays, but most of all, they are excited to be dancing again! At the end of the last year they had the final performance and it went extremely well and as friends and family watched, so did Grace and Rodney the schools resident ghosts, but as much as the holidays are full of excitement, sometimes being at school can be even more so. Alfie, one of the boys in Katie and Lauren’s year comes back to school with some gadgets which he says can detect ghosts and he is determined after certain events last year that he can prove there are ghosts at Amberwood hall and Lauren is worried for her friends.

As everyone settles in, Katie is becoming more involved with the school newspaper and one of the ideas that she has come up with is a gossip board where news can be shared in a more public way and it starts off brilliantly, with students posting about supernatural happenings around the school, but one day an individual starts posting rumours about Lauren, but she just ignores them. As the term really gets underway a House Choreographics Cup is announced and each house holds auditions for the parts, so when the dancers are chosen and Lauren is one of them, rehearsals take up a lot of the students time.

As these rehearsals continue, the account posting the rumours intensifies and the rumours become malicious and start to affect the close friendship Lauren and Katie share, but who could it be? Amid ghost hunting escapades, rehearsals and defending herself against the rumours, will Lauren have time to investigate the source of the rumours, or will she lose her closest friend in the world? This is a lovely cosy mystery with plenty of twists and turns as the adventures as Amberwood Hall continue in this lovely tale of friendship, trust and lies.
