Thelma Wheatley Launches Her Latest Novel

The Girls of Priory Hall

New young naïve teacher, Isla Owen, is drawn into a passionate affair with an older experienced woman, sixty year-old Miss Annersley, the administrator of Priory Hall School for Girls, “run on English lines” in the Eastern Townships of Quebec Province in the mid-1960’s.
Isla’s naïve illusions about boarding school life are based on the school-girl stories of her youth and contrast with her poor working-class background in England. They are part of her deep attraction for Miss Annersley, against the back-drop of a “real” boarding-school.
When Isla and her lover are accidentally outed the story comes to a powerful horrifying climax.

Available in paperback on Amazon.
