Sir Alfred Dreyfus is in jail, innocent of the charges against him, guilty of a lifetime of denial.

Headmaster of one of Britain's most prestigious schools, knighted for his services to education, he has built a distinguished career whilst carefully concealing his Jewish roots. When he is falsely imprisoned for a horrific crime, he realises it is not just his enemies who have difficulty with his identity.
