Devon as a microcosm with the outside world in a separate peaceWelcome to a small school called Devon in the summer of 1942. At the start of the Second War World War, Devon is a quiet place with close friends and fond memories, until an event draws the entire school into its own war. When the star athlete gets his leg "accidentally" broken by his best friend, Devon turns into a war zone where no one is safe. It all started with a childish game of jumping from a tree into a river, a test of courage and will. . All fun and games until that summer day when the star athlete is ready to jump while his best friend follows him up the tree and then jumps. The branch is shaken slightly and suddenly the school's best athlete finds himself on the ground with a broken leg. This event seems so small and weak, but it will soon destroy not only a friendship, but also the entire school....
