Emma
by Tanya Allan
Synopsis
Russell Drysdale, a fifteen-year old boy at a British Boys Public (private) School. The only son of a wealthy industrialist, who died when the boy was eight. However, he has left his millions to the boy in a trust fund, which he can’t touch until he is twenty-one.
Brigette Drysdale, the attractive yet bitter French born mother, who seeks to separate her son from the trust by fair means or foul.
Monksreach Hall, the archaic institution that encourages bullying as a means of discipline, and in which Russell is totally miserable.
The surprise. The morning he wakes up to find he is a girl. Suddenly, life in an all boys’ school is even less attractive, so using the name Emma, the girl runs away, into a whole new world. More than capable, she thwarts her mother and her mother’s vicious boyfriend, the police, and manages to show the world that some girls are the next best thing to angels. |
