Description

A young female teacher, Mary Kendall, begins her first teaching post at a remote boy's boarding school on the edge of the Yorkshire moors. There, she develops a close friendship with Chad Elson, another young male teacher.

As the year progresses, Mary becomes increasingly concerned about one pupil, Michael Moorcroft, who has a tragic past. His mother was murdered when he was a child, and his strange behaviour begins to deteriorate. The final term culminates in a shocking event: a stabbing at the school that reveals the truth about Michael's mother's murder years ago.

This gripping novel explores the complex relationships between teachers and their students, and the devastating consequences of unresolved trauma.
