在 1989 年的同一天，四十三个婴儿莫名降生，而这些随机成为母亲的女性之前未有任何怀孕迹象，亦无任何关联。其中七个孩子由亿万富翁实业家雷金纳德·哈格里夫斯爵士收养，他创建了伞学院，并培养自己的“孩子”来拯救世界。但事情并未按计划进行。在他们的少年时代，这个家庭分裂了，团队也解散了。时至今日，六位幸存的成员已经三十几岁，他们因为哈格里夫斯去世的消息而重聚。卢瑟、迭戈、艾莉森、克劳斯、万尼亚和五号共同破解父亲神秘死亡的谜团。但由于个性和能力各异，这个关系疏远的家庭再一次濒临破裂，更不要说末日将至的威胁了。 《伞学院》改编自荣获艾斯纳奖的热门漫画和图画小说，该书由杰拉德·威（《My Chemical Romance》）创作编写、加布里埃尔·巴绘制，由 Dark Horse Comics 出版。
The series is set inside the bubble of Silicon Valley, amid misguided corporate cultures, moony innovation labs and cutthroat private high schools. It is centered around a rift between a self-appointed “inventor of the future” tech CEO and his self-serving “performance psychologist”, who are engulfed in a scandal sparked by the exploitation of personal data.
It tells the story of Adolfo Novak, patriarch of one of the most powerful families in the country, who gathers his family and close friends to celebrate his 80th birthday.
Behind the toasts and smiles lie decades of secrets, betrayals, blind loyalties and a strong desire for revenge. The evening will end up blowing up and revealing a truth that, when finally comes to light, will be much more unexpected and surprising than any previous suspicion.
Production details for Crookhaven, the upcoming television adaptation of J.J. Arcanjo’s The School for Thieves series, are currently being kept under wraps.
