From the back cover:
This is the way the world will end: with a bang!
The Shrapnel Academy is an institution dedicated to the memory of Henry Shrapnel, a military genius who in 1984 invented the exploding cannonball. To this distinguished place, one winter's afternoon, comes a motley crowd of (more or less) innocent guests.
As the snow begins to fall, the level of military paranoia rises, and this apparent comedy of human relations becomes the tragedy of the battlefield.
A paperback in good condition (the novel is from 1986).
