The narrator of this haunting novel grew up on the campus of a boarding school, the son of the headmaster. Many years later, after the death of his father, he learns that this man was not in fact his father.

Hoping to unravel the mystery of his birth, the narrator returns to the school where he grew up, this time as a teacher of Classics, but things go wrong from the start. He is rumored to be having an affair with a brilliant and beautiful student named Natalie. A second rumor has him involved with Elizabeth, a former classmate and now teacher of art.

Past mentors and old friends possess various parts of the puzzle, but they have their own secrets to hide and are determined to do so even when it means spreading dangerous lies. The narrator must uncover the mystery of his birth before he is led into an unspeakable tragedy.
