In the middle of the night, five teens break into a small-town high school to protest the decision to close the school and move them to a big city school. Led by Bilan, whose experience with the Arab Spring fired a passion to peacefully fight against injustice, the Gang of Five occupy their old school. The local police chief and the town quietly cheer them on. When the school board calls in a security firm to break up their occupation using any means necessary, including force, the Five have to decide how far they will go to show their outrage at having no control over decisions that affect their lives.

I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember. I’ve worked as a journalist, a teacher, and an elementary school principal. Now I teach music at home. I like to walk, read, ski, feed and watch the birds, watch soccer, photograph, listen to and play music (I play keyboard and saxophone in a band) and, of course, write, usually in the early morning. I live on the Magaguadavic River in St. George, New Brunswick, Canada.
