Max Tudor, a former MI5 agent, reluctantly returns to his alma mater, St. Luke's College, to investigate the mysterious death of the chaplain, Reverend Ace Graybill. Initially, the police conclude that Graybill died of natural causes, considering him harmless and unlikely to have crossed anyone capable of murder. However, Max senses that something is amiss, as the suspects, including the esteemed Principal, the cautious bursar, the wise librarian, and a group of benevolent students and academics, appear too pristine to be involved.
As Max delves deeper into the investigation, he uncovers a web of secrets and lies that extends beyond the college walls. He discovers that Graybill was not as innocent as he seemed, and that there were those in the college who had a vested interest in seeing him gone. Max must navigate through a maze of treachery and deception, using his skills and experience to unravel the truth before it's too late.
