A curmudgeonly instructor at a New England prep school is forced to remain on campus during Christmas break to babysit the handful of students with nowhere to go. Eventually, he forms an unlikely bond with one of them — a damaged, brainy troublemaker — and with the school’s head cook, who has just lost a son in Vietnam.
This holiday story trades saccharine sentiment for the sharp, biting wit of a lonely history professor. An unexpected warmth grows between three mismatched souls stranded in a snowy New England boarding school.
