Former almost-rock-star Brian Brick Smith thought his punk-rock days were behind him. He was wrong.

Before he became a mild-mannered English teacher, Brian was the songwriter and bass player for a one-hit-wonder punk band: Call Field. Two decades ago, Brian and his bandmates were on a stratospheric ascent through the music industry… until Call Field unexpectedly crash-landed and broke up.

Since then, Brian has been living a quiet white-collar life, teaching at a suburban California high school, and desperately trying to put his past behind him. Despite Brian’s best attempts at anonymity, one of his star students, the precocious Veronica Jones, has stumbled upon his not-so-secret identity. After convincing Brian to relay the story of how he wrote his band’s only hit song, Veronica is left with many, many unanswered questions. Why did the band break up? What happened to Call Field’s other members? Why is Brian so reluctant to revisit his past? Veronica wants answers. All the answers.

Brian doesn’t know it yet, but his incomplete music career isn’t over. The tenacious Veronica Jones has a plan - and it’s one that will bring together all the shattered pieces of Brian’s jigsaw-puzzle life. Of course, with Veronica taking charge, almost anything can happen… including retired almost-rock-stars rising from the ashes and facing the music of their painful punk-rock past.
