1955. The polished veneer of a boys' boarding school in Northern
England masks a cadre of wickedness. Seniors viciously torment any
junior they deem unfit. Jonathan Simon, in his first term is warned
that there are three monsters in his dorm; seniors Flicker, Sleeth
and Tunk, and that the code of conduct mandates no snitching. Simon
befriends two other juniors; pixie-faced Ian Gracey and witty,
grossly overweight Arthur Crown. During a cross-country run, the
three friends take a short cut and stumble into the cadet rifle
range. Corps Sergeant Sleeth puts them through a degrading
punishment using human excrement. The three juniors swear a blood
oath never to allow another bully to abuse them. Will this oath be
their downfall, or will they make it through the school year?
Snitching could have serious consequences, but keeping silent will
break their blood oath. As Simon, Gracey and Crown try to survive
this perilous journey, the constant threat of harm brings their
friendship ever closer...
