No more abusive governesses threatening to withhold meals. And no more pedophile housemasters creeping around the dormitory at night or paddling you at will. Yes, things would be better when 12-year-old Alan got to high school at the orphanage for fatherless boys. That's what he thought, until:
• A pair of upperclassmen threatened to beat him senseless on his first day
• His new principal revealed a personal vendetta against Alan
• His closest friends became sadistic bullies
• He found out a girl he had a crush on had befriended his mother
Boarding School Bastard 3 follows a boy through his high school years behind the walls of Girard College, the famous segregated orphanage for fatherless boys in the Sixties. How does the school's "white males only" policy affect the black neighbors around it? Will Alan survive upperclassman abuse and hazing? Will he graduate before Principal Gruder can find a reason to expel him? Does Alan even want to graduate, or will he succumb to the siren calls of sex, drugs and Rock 'n Roll? Leavening the tragedy with humor, the Boarding School Bastard series reveals a world we'd prefer to avoid but is too riveting to ignore. This is the final book in the trilogy.
