Résumé

Tapper Jones has landed his dream job as a professor at an idyllic Midwestern college. His dream is shattered when he discovers that he has entered a snake pit: a history department at war. Tapper's chances for advancement and tenure depend upon a handful of ethically-challenged senior professors, some of whom did not want him hired in the first place, who spar continuously over trivial issues. Success requires Tapper to walk a fine line, further complicated by his growing love for Katherine, the department chair's niece.
Tempers in the history department escalate, and when they finally explode Tapper must gamble his future by choosing sides.
