Chapter VI - The Cost of Honor
Chapter VII - Knighted
A fourteen‑year‑old freshman at Regal High finds himself at a crossroads between the ordinary routine of school and the quiet demands of a small, close‑knit boys’ club attached to St. Leonard’s Church. When an elderly stranger asks for aid and Frank Mulvy—secretary of the club and a rising football player—offers his own lunch, his simple act of generosity sets the tone for a story that explores the meaning of chivalry in a modern city.
Guided by the steady, principled Father Boone, the club’s members rally around a surprise opportunity: a chance to hear celebrated tenor John McCormack live. As the boys debate how to spend a generous donation, their enthusiasm and sense of duty reveal a world where friendship, music, and a young man’s emerging sense of honor intersect, promising an uplifting glimpse of youthful courage and the bonds that shape a “boy knight.
