The Curve: A Novel: A Novel

The students at Manhattan Law School, a decrepit institution on the edge of the toxic Gowanus Canal in Brooklyn, are geographically-challenged and mad as hell â€“ in debt up to their eyeballs and fighting over the few legal jobs left for those who are far outside the Ivy League.

Our hero, Adam Wright, is a newly minted professor with high hopes and low expectations. But nothing has prepared him for a classroom of digitally distracted students, a rebellion of grade grubbers, a Law Journal staff at the helm of a school-wide scam, and a corrupt administration that runs the school as if it were a personal ATM. Adam regrets leaving his lucrative corporate law firm for the wilds of academia, until he finds an ally in the brilliant and fetching Laura Stapleton, a colleague with her own troubling secrets.

Now the two professors may just have to save legal education... or join their students in the unemployment lineâ€¦or worse.

With its colorful cast of eccentrics and law school misfits, a satirical plot that â€“ without too much of a stretch â€“ could be ripped from the headlines, and a proven author duo who know this world and have six previous books between them, The Curve continues Ankerwyckeâ€™s trend of publishing high quality/highly readable legal fiction with an edge.

The Curve is a hugely entertaining and deeply felt novel that satirizes the current state of higher education and reads like a cross between Dangerous Minds and The Paper Chase.
