Mark Haverty, age 17, arrives from New York at no-nonsense Notre Dame in the autumn of 1951, determined to succeed. But a grisly campus murder concealed for more than a century, a 37-year-old librarian with money and mischief on her mind, and the irresistible siren allure of a St. Mary’s College belle quickly derail his good intentions. Mark finds himself increasingly at odds with his upbringing and with college authorities as he confronts the Legends of Notre Dame and careens toward a night of unspeakable horror.
