Big Window: a Novel Bobbi Kidder

Everything has changed for Kate Raymond. After her divorce from a slick L. A. lawyer, she moves to a small northwest town, gets a job as a high school drama teacher and begins the process of rebuilding her life. In the first of many surprises, she is given a special assignment working with "last chance" students, including Jared, an angry young man with a plan. Rudy Lee, Kate's friend with attitude; Frank, her hard-edged colleague; and a host of troubled and troubling kids all come at one time or another to the sofa in front of the big window in Kate's classroom. With humor and a little help from her friends, Kate gets through the first year of her new life.
