A teenage prankster. A segregated state. A dangerous game of truth and rebellion.
In1960s, Alabama, Pip Cooper's antics land him in a strict religious boarding school, a last-ditch effort by his parents to reform his wild spirit. But Pip doesn't change-he adapts. With his new partners-in-mischief, Pecker and Archie, he pushes pranks to theatrical heights, leaving a permanent mark on New Roads School and College. But when Pip sets his sights beyond the school gates-onto Alabama's white supremacist state government-his high jinks cross a perilous line.
With civil rights hanging in the balance, and a dangerous new governor taking office, Pip's stunts spark real-world consequences. His bold defiance pulls an unlikely atty into the fray: a
Jewish housewife from New York who becomes both his conscience and his collaborator. As the stakes rise, Pip's fight for justice transforms into a reckoning with race, responsibility, and the price of disruption.
Set against the backdrop of a segregated South on the brink of change, this razor-sharp coming-of-age story explores youthful rebellion, unexpected friendship, and the cost of conscience in a world stacked against truth.
