Her parents are oblivious to her gifted nature and her brother, Victor, is drifting into mental illness. She joins The Club, a group of troubled kids at school. The Club falls under the spell of Rev. Randolph Fletcher, a charismatic minister whose spiritual ideals long ago went off the rails and Mallory faces the ultimate test of moral courage.
