In 1961, thirty-year-old Ken Wells is a teacher of natural science at Redfield High School in Massachusetts. He is dedicated to his profession and to his students, and he adores his wife and daughter. Everything is going so well for him-but then the unthinkable happens. One of his female senior students, seventeen-year-old Deborah Horton, accuses him of inappropriate sexual advances.

Ken is innocent, even though damaging evidence surfaces indicating otherwise. Arrested and charged with statutory rape, Ken lands in jail, where he has plenty of time to try to figure out why Deborah framed him. Could it have something to do with Deborah's boyfriend, Ted Fallon-the school's star football player? Ken caught Ted cheating on a test, after all, and if he flunks this class, he doesn't get his football scholarship.

Though Ken is convinced Deborah's conscience will compel her to tell the truth, his lawyer thinks it unlikely. Besides, the evidence against him is too much. They'll have to find another way to prove Ken's innocence, and they begin preparing for trial. There's only one problem: Ken has a past he doesn't want exposed, and a trial will reveal it all.

Full of twists and turns, The Kenneth Wells Case delves into how a false accusation can bring disastrous consequences for all.
