The Crucible of Carolina Military Institute
In 1966 Charleston, South Carolina, Will McLean returns for his senior year at Carolina Military Institute with mixed emotions. Despite ranking near the bottom militarily, he's been elected vice chairman of the honor court-a prestigious position judging cadets accused of violating the school's sacred code. The Institute, founded in 1842 after a slave insurrection, takes pride in having fired the first shots of the Civil War. Its campus faces inward, adorned with obsolete weapons, embodying the school's unyielding devotion to tradition. Will's relationship with Colonel Thomas Berrineau, "the Bear," proves pivotal when he's assigned a sensitive mission: serve as liaison for Tom Pearce, the Institute's first black cadet, who has already received threatening letters from a mysterious group called "The Ten." The Bear explains that while most South Carolina schools have integrated, the Institute has resisted until federal funding became threatened. Despite his own admitted prejudice, the Bear commits to protecting Pearce because "he becomes one of my lambs, and I like to make sure all my lambs get an even break."
