Excellentia is g’n gewone skool nie. Die plek is vol geheime en tradisies wat Quinn se hare laat rys. Maar sy is nie daar om te integreer nie – sy is daar om te leer. Ongelukkig is die lewe nie so voorspelbaar soos ’n chemie-eksperiment nie. En soms maak dit nie saak wat jy doen nie, die moeilikheid kom soek jou.
