About

William Hundert is a passionate and principled Classics professor who finds his tightly-controlled world shaken and inexorably altered when a new student, Sedgewick Bell, walks into his classroom. What begins as a fierce battle of wills gives way to a close student-teacher relationship, but results in a life lesson for Hundert that will still haunt him a quarter of a century later.

Inside a prestigious prep school, the rigid order of a Classical studies classroom fractures when a charismatic troublemaker challenges every moral principle the faculty holds dear. This collision of integrity and deceit examines how the lessons we teach our students often fail to prepare them for the realities of adulthood.
