Bringing together four fellow teachers, he probes both students and staff who he believes could be connected to the mystery. Soon, it goes further than a death threat, and blood is spilt for real. One by one, the teachers get drawn into a mystery that leads them, one by one, to leave Watercroft Academy, until only Mr Hilton remains, and five years after the case is solved, a new clue opens up the mystery wide once again, which only he can solve...
