​
"I came back because this is the last place life was decent."
Rocheville Elementary School has sat vacant since 1972, untouched, ignored even by vandals. But 30 years later there’s life inside. Tom Skolka, the last student to leave the building before it closed, has returned to escape the brutality of the world and relive his childhood memories. But this plan has drawbacks, mostly in the form of the fifth-grade teacher who keeps intruding on Tom’s visions and casting doubts about his sanity.

The Readers Speak...
​
“An intelligent and thought-provoking psycho-drama.”
​
“Donovan not only captures what was right about the age of innocence, but begins to explore what can go wrong once that innocence is lost.”
