Myron Amberworth, a professor of paleontology at the local city college, is about to lose his job

It's only through what he believes is the fortuitous recruitment of two additional students, Dena and Knuckles, that he is allowed to keep his class

But Dena and Knuckles are in fact two members of a street gang known as the Scorpions, whose only motivation in enrolling is to heist the contents of a museum scheduled in a field trip

But Dena is enjoying her new life as a student much to the dismay of her father, Knuckles and Tilly, Myron's jealous girlfriend

Dena, thrown out of her house by her temperamental father, is forced to take up temporary residence at Myron's run down apartment

Dena's father, devoted as he is stubborn, practically moves in himself to keep an eye on his daughter and an increasingly distraught Myron

As Dena goes "good", Myron's colleague and department head goes "bad", and entrusts a stolen gem to the unknowing Myron

Lilah Davenport, a journalist, is murdered while chasing down the stolen gem and her ghost has fallen in love with the mortal Myron and searches desperately for a way to communicate the danger he now faces
