When Sally Hamington - the toughest English teacher at a prestigious girls' academy - is accused of paedophilia, the entire school is turned upside down. New principal Helen Blalock, Dean of Students Sister Rose James and rival English teacher Angela Martin all have something to hide: Angela is a lesbian; Sister Rose has a fetish for Internet bondage sites; and Helen is a nymphomaniac. With dark humour and an offbeat, risque subject matter, Maryfield Academy offers seductive, surprising prose in the comedic vein of such authors as Muriel Spark, Fay Weldon and Mavis Gallant.
