Set at a boys' boarding school in New England during the early years of World War II, A SEPARATE PEACE is a harrowing parable of the dark side of adolescence. Gene is a lonely, introverted intellectual. Phineas is a handsome, taunting, daredevil athlete. What happens between the two friends one summer, like the war itself, banishes the innocence of these boys and their world.
In this first installment of Anna Carey's series, Eve discovers the true purpose of the school she has called home since her birth. Forced to run from a horrifying fate, she sets out on her own and must decide for herself whom she can trust.
