The place is St Oswald's, an old and long-established boys' grammar school in the north of England. A new year has just begun, and for the staff and boys of the school a wind of unwelcome change is blowing.Suits, paperwork and information technology rule the world; and Roy Straitley, Latin master, eccentric, and veteran of st Oswald's is finally - reluctantly - contemplating retirement.But, beneath the little rivalries, petty disputes and everyday crises of the school, a darker undercurrent stirs. And a bitter grudge, hidden and carefully nurtured for thirteen years, is about to erupt.
