    Fielding Gray is the shining star of his school. Brilliant in Latin and Greek, he excels at cricket and captivates everyone with his charm, eloquence, and a daring spirit. Just before he begins his final year in 1945, he falls in love with the reserved blond Christopher, drawn to his innocence. Despite warnings from his best friend about a potential scandal and the watchful eye of a rival for the position of school captain, a tragedy looms — and Fielding Gray's promising future begins to falter outside the school as well. "Fielding Gray" is a poignant novel about friendship and shattered expectations, desire and fateful failure, manipulative schemes and guilt.
