Synopsis

Apt Pupil is a psychological thriller novella written by Stephen King. The story follows a high school student named Todd Bowden who discovers that his elderly neighbor, Arthur Denker, is actually a former Nazi war criminal named Kurt Dussander.

Todd becomes obsessed with Dussander's past and blackmails him into sharing his experiences from the war. As Todd delves deeper into Dussander's dark past, he becomes increasingly disturbed and begins to exhibit violent behavior himself.

The novella explores themes of guilt, evil, and the corrupting influence of power. As Todd and Dussander's relationship becomes more twisted, both characters are forced to confront the consequences of their actions.

Apt Pupil is a chilling and thought-provoking tale that delves into the darkest corners of the human psyche.
