THE COMPOUND by S. A. Bodeen
This book is one of the Texas Lonestars. I bought it last spring, but did not get around to reading it until school was starting this year. If you think being the kid of a billionaire would be really awesome, think again. What if your billionaire dad was really psycho, but you didn’t realize it until you discover what he has done for your protection is really some very sick experiment? I hope I haven’t given too much of the book away, but this book has the potential to creep you out. Since I like this kind of creeping-out in a story, I really liked this book. The story moved quickly, keeping me engaged throughout. What really appealed to me was the main character learning who he could and could not trust and what to do about his discoveries. Bizarre circumstances (billionaire dad and living in an underground compound), but very real problems (who do I trust and when do I take a stand) we all confront on the journey to maturity make this a good, fairly quick read.
