Description

A prestigious west coast university is under attack. The serenity of the seaside campus has been rocked and the lives of the university community have been threatened. Is it the work of a determined group of students or a sociopath with his own agenda? A shooting attack on a Middle Eastern Religions class throws California Pacific University into a state of fear and suspicion. Violent protests erupt at campus events that feature controversial speakers. Threats and attacks on the community occur every few days as an unknown assailant challenges the campus leadership, making demands for greater influence over the administration including the removal of the current Chancellor. Those who live in the California Pacific University community are caught up in a power struggle that threatens the university with more violence. Principles of diversity, inclusion, and free speech are challenged as the university struggles to maintain control. Darren Kelly, a professor of Counseling Psychology, and Detective Jake Cooper are part of a Threat Assessment Team that attempts to identify the attacker and release his chaotic grip on their community. But matching wits with a sociopath could pop the collegiate bubble in which they live, and the quiet seaside community will forever be changed if the assailant achieves his goal.
