Side Parting

Rusty clippers, precision scissors and a dead Curly.

Kit went back to school to learn hairdressing and hoped it would kickstart a new career.

And her precious scissors are found sticking out of the body.

Can two vicars and a mad scientist cut Kit out of this mess?

Or is this one too bad even for the varied skills of her loyal flat mates?
