About this audiobook
When an unpopular student is unexpectedly elevated to the position of school captain, a fierce rebellion simmers just beneath the surface of the student body. Facing boycotts, sabotage, and open hostility, the new leader must find a way to unite a fractured school without compromising his own principles. The struggle for authority exposes deep-seated prejudices and forces both the captain and his detractors to reevaluate their notions of leadership and loyalty. It is a compelling exploration of power dynamics, peer pressure, and the courage it takes to stand alone.
