James Van Der Beek narrates an unforgettable coming-of-age journey set during a transformational time—high school senior year. Packed with laughter, wonder, beauty, and heartbreak, this poignant audiobook based on a true story is a must-listen for fans of the classic movie Dead Poets Society.

Senior year was supposed to be the time of Colt's life, but when he meets Lucas Oliver, a college-aged vagabond with a mysterious past, Colt's life takes an unexpected turn.

Lucas mentors Colt and a group of eleven other senior guys, guiding them through a series of rites of passage over the course of the year. They are challenged by the power of sacred questions, courageous acts, and vulnerable authenticity, but the question remains: can Lucas be trusted with his unorthodox ideas about God, life, and death? Along the way, Colt's feelings for Noa—a "band dork" he's known for years—deepen as he falls for her bright green eyes and charming honesty.

As Colt and the group of young men explore the wonders, romance, and adventures of their senior year, they are confronted with an event that challenges everything they hold true.
