Have you ever faced a serious charge but couldn't find out what it is you've supposedly done?That's the predicament facing Professor Harold Pippinger of Tarryton State College after one of his students accuses him of sexual misconduct. When he demands specifics, he's stonewalled: No one at the all-powerful Office of Diversity and Inclusion will tell him. In the age of #MeToo, his guilt is assumed. Meanwhile, his accuser, a young woman named Mona Morrisset, realizes she's set more powerful forces in motion than she'd intended. She's tortured by second thoughts. If only she'd waited, given herself time to think before calling the Bias Response Team, she would have accepted that what happened with the professor was a mere accident. Her anguish increases when the case leaks and violent protests erupt over what campus feminists see as the school's endemic sexism. When other activist groups join in, the mayhem draws the attention of state lawmakers eager to use the chaos as an excuse to cut the school's funding. Harold's reserves of strength, patience and self-control are tested to the breaking point as he awaits the decision of the young female attorney assigned to investigate his case. Meanwhile, Mona begins to understand that she will never have peace unless she can somehow reconcile with the professor. But to achieve that, she must make the hardest decision of her life.Pranked is a satirical look at the hair-trigger outrage that characterizes today's campus politics, and a reminder of the dilemma that haunts all activist groups: how to restrain the most extreme members, whose actions risk a backlash that could undermine their movement and discredit their cause.
