JOCASTA WESTGREEN is 26-year-old. She is beautiful, extremely intelligent and loving. She is a 12th grade English teacher, and she loves her job, well most of the time. Mark is her stockbroker boyfriend, who she loves all the time.
Teaching is Miss Westgreen’s passion, but it is an exhausting challenge. Her regret is that there seems to be little time for teaching, and it seems to her that she loves the kids more than they love her, or even themselves. At least once a month, sometimes twice, a student calls her “some kind of a bitch.” And, many students come to school damaged from drugs, alcohol and unhappy homelives. So, she is driven by her desire to help her students. Like any good teacher, in her spare time, she reads. That’s what English teachers do -- right? They read boring English teacher-stuff – short stories, poems, plays -- right? Sometimes, they even read books to help their students do better in school. You know, educational stuff.
Miss Westgreen likes to read old books. Some information, though, is buried in the past for a good reason. She digs up an old book that contains fantastic information! But she knows how to handle any kind of information. She’s a teacher! And so, plain-old-dull English teacher, Miss Westgreen, evolves to meet the evil that she unleashes. This evil thing just wants what it wants, and it does not like Jocasta’s and Mark’s human connection. On the other hand, it likes her students and it wants to be at school! And she wonders, “what have I done?”
But Jocasta is unconventional and daring as she fights the battle of her life, leaving her with unquestionable superhuman knowledge—knowledge lost to humankind.
