Teddy Crutcher has won Teacher of the Year at the prestigious Belmont Academy, home to the best and brightest. He says his wife couldna�TMt be more proud a�" though no one has seen her in a while. Teddy really cana�TMt be bothered with a few mysterious deaths on campus thata�TMre looking more and more like murder or the student digging a little too deep into Teddya�TMs personal life. His main focus is pushing these kids to their full academic potential. All he wants is for his colleagues a�" and the endlessly meddlesome parents a�" to stay out of his way. If not, well, theya�TMll get what they deserve. Ita�TMs really too bad that sometimes excellence can come at such a high cost.
