The summary

A 16 years old boy, call Connor Durrell, must leave his home. Rebecca and Harry, two transporter of a Boot Camp which calls Lake Harmony, kidnap Connor. He must wear handcuffs. They are bound for a long time and the hands of Connor get numb. About 4 am. they arrive a building which looks like a prison. He can use the bathroom.

A man goes with him in a windowless room with a bed and two chairs. The man looks like a troll. He must stand for a while. Then a thin man come into the room and says he must strip or he must stand there for another 24 hours. He strips. The man gives him a green polo shirt, a blue jeans and green flip-flops. The troll and the thin man leave while he put on his new uniform.

One of the men says he can try to sleep. Connor is scared that he must stay in the “prison”. At the next morning he must stand up. A man with a black polo shirt twists his arm because Connor won’t get up. The man goes with him to the office of the direction. The director calls Mr. Z. He tells Connor that his rich parents pay much money that Connor will be well-bred. His parents think that his relationship with his past teacher Sabrina isn’t good.

She is ten years older then him. Connor thinks that  this isn’t a factor to send him in a Boot Camp. The director gives him a big pack of paper. He says that this is his bible. He must learn it very carefully. When he thinks he knows the rules by heart he must write a test about these rules. He will be guided into a clear classroom. He read the bible in forty minutes. In the bible he reads that he has to work one’s way up.

He is Level 1 and he can not leave the Boot Camp until he is Level 6. The man who guided him in the room can’t believe it and says unfriendly he must read it again. He reads it again and says that he is ready for the test. Connor writes the test and he detect that the answers are right because the facial expression of the man who corrects the test is clear but it isn’t positive, ‘cause the man is an unfriendly human.

The man makes a call and few minutes later another man comes into the room. They escort Connor back to the windowless room with the bed. One of them says that he can take a nap but he is wound up. For this reason he must sit on the bed and have to shut up. He thinks about his life and he remember that many people say that he is very intelligent. At the second morning he eat at a table with his new “family”.

The name of the family is “Dignity”. At the other tables sit other families. The called “Truth”, “Faith” and “Courtesy”.

At the next days he meets Joe. A “Father” of his family. Joe is a man who isn’t friendly. I think that he is there because he loves to put the pupils down.

He meets Adam and his gang Ron and John. They are on a high Level and they are rowdy. They beat and spit on the students in an isolation ward which calls TI, because the personal isn’t allowed to hit the students. But past the beats you don’t see the aftermaths ‘cause the beats are cursory so the parents don’t know that their children get a beating.  At the TI the students lie on the floor with the no.....[read full text]

Sarah, Pauly and Connor spark a fire with flavour dust in the kitchen. They pack a sack with rolls and they press the alarm button for the fire fighters. When the cars from the fire fighters pass the door they sprint in the wood. Someone see them and run after them. They hide from this person and Sarah fall down and hurt at her foot.

But they can escape. They sleep at the ground. At the next days they have the idea to eat at night from waste from a restaurant. They have the idea that Sarah stops a car and when the river stops Pauly and Connor come out from them hide-out. It works so they drive a big part near to Canada.

Meanwhile, her lips come close to my ear as she whispers, “You don’t have to call me ma’am. I’m here to take you out of this place. You can tell me the truth, Connor. I know what’s been going on.” She backs away slightly, but doesn’t let go. Now my father, and the man in the top coat and the woman join us. Behind them is Mr Z. Only now I realize that the woman is Rebecca.

She takes my hand in hers. “I found your parents,” she says. “I told them what you did. How you saved our lives.” “At first we weren’t sure whether to believe it,” my father says. “But then we heard from a young woman in Canada. Someone named Sarah.” “Where you hit, or beaten, or kicked or injured at any time by a staff member?” the man in the top coat asks. I hesitate when Mr Z catches my eye and narrows his in warning. “They said you were beaten, Connor,” my father says. “Is that true?” Mr Z glares at me and shakes his head.

My mother sees this. “You can tell us the truth, Connor,” she pleads. “Don’t pay any attention to that man. It doesn’t matter now. We’re taking you home.” “Were you hit, or beaten, or kicked or injured at any time by a staff member?” the man in the top coat asks again. Mr Z’s eyes narrow with furious warning. I’m afraid. “Just tell us the truth, Connor,” my father urges. “Did they hurt you?” “I…I…Yes, sir, they did.

But-“ “But what?” my father asks. “But… I deserved it, sir.”

I read some other books from Morton Rhue and I think he is a great author because he writes his books in a good way so you can understand them easily. The books tell the truth and later you can say that this was a very hard story but a g.....
