About the Book

Thelma is a troubled young woman in Townsville in the 1980s. A man comes to her aid and before long they are married. They travel to a small town of less than a dozen homes in the west of the state. Her husband goes to work on a sheep property. Thelma is an inventive person and soon surprises her neighbours with the things in her home. She helps people and also helps at the pub where she averts a hold up. A dog helps to make her days. Her husband takes a job in the Northern Territory and only comes home every six weeks for a fortnight. After his death she has lots of money and becomes a member of a mining group.
