English teacher Richard Boyle certainly never thought he would find himself talking down a former student intent on harming others, but when Mark LeDrew shows up at Richard's school with a bomb strapped to his chest, Richard immediately jumps into action. Thanks to some quick thinking, he averts a major tragedy and is hailed as a hero, but not all the attention focused on him is positive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRichard's brief moment in the spotlight puts him in the sights of a deranged blackmailer with a score to settle.
