When Tyrell, aka Sincere, a clerk in the Mountain Hill College Office, learns that two of his friends have been wrongfully expelled for rule violations they claim they did not commit, he launches an investigation with help from Attorney Renee Adams. Together, they discover an elaborate scheme whereby hundreds of men and women are expelled each semester but somehow their tuition money still goes to the college. As Sincere and Renee get closer to discovering the culprits behind this mystery, a witness is murdered, and somebody tries to run Renee off the road.
You'll be shocked to discover just how far up the cover-up goes!
