It is a cold damp April afternoon in a northern industrial town sometime in the 1930s. There is a sinister Victorian building. A mysterious visitor arrives at the front entrance and rings the bell. Then there is a poisoning and a terrible death. This sounds like the setting for J.B. Priestley's An Inspector Calls. But it is not. In fact, this real life drama takes place in a Liverpool school. I know as I was once a pupil at the school.
