About this Book

How thin is the line between social obligation and unnecessary meddling, or between fighting for freedom and terrorism, or between teaching youth and warping their beliefs? In this first Dan Starney novel, a seemingly-quiet history teacher has secret plans that force an examination of these questions when he suddenly finds himself in the public spotlight as part of a controversy surrounding one of his fellow teachers. Narrowly missing that spotlight, math teacher Karena Walsh begins to suspect there is more to Dan than the mild persona he shows at school. Taking it upon herself to investigate, she finds herself faced with even more conflict as her feelings toward Dan begin to morph. Dan's careful planning begins to unravel as the school controversy heats up, and he and Karena are forced into decisions neither one wants to make.
