Description
Co-written by Gary Mitchell and Jayne Austin (also of ‘The Atlantic Writers’ Forum’) this novella tells the 1960’s tale of wayward schoolgirl Horatia Fitzsimmons and her chums.
Sent to boarding school ‘new girl’ Horry is quickly drawn into a web of intrigue and experimental physics. What is the secret of the enigmatic teacher Professor Lovecraft’s aether experiments? Why are they forbidden to fraternise with the boys of St Jason’s – and what is the role of the mysterious ‘Minister without Portfolio?’
In this parody of classic school stories, ‘Hogwarts’, ‘St Trinians’ et al – and of the burgeoning world of ‘fan fiction’ – all these questions and more will be answered.
The novel’s humour will also chime with educationalists and retro buffs everywhere and the Sixties are about to swing…
