While researching Post Traumatic Stress Disorder for her graduate thesis, Hannah Swindon comes across suspicious files regarding a WWII survivor of the Bataan Death March. Slowly becoming friends with Mr. Edwards, she becomes engrossed in the incredible story of three friends that created a ‘university’ while POWs in order to survive brutal Japanese treatment. When Hannah finds out the incredible truth to Mr. Edwards’ time at Bataan, she is forced to decide whether to protect a friend or use his story to graduate.
