After thirty years at St Oswald’s Grammar in North Yorkshire, Latin master Roy Straitley has seen all kinds of boys come and go. But every so often there’s a boy who doesn’t fit the mould. A troublemaker. A boy with hidden shadows inside.
A new broom has arrived, bringing Powerpoint, sharp suits and even sixth form girls to the dusty corridors.

A boy capable of bad things.
