Each year, every teenager disappears from the compound. They don’t disappear in a puff of smoke, they are definitely taken. Taken by the men with dogs. Loaded onto trucks. But where are they taken, and why?
Trapped within the confines of the compound, Alex and his friends have enjoyed life, foraging for food, and going on adventures. But things are about to change.
Far from the haven it once was, the compound becomes a place of eerie disappearances, unexplained deaths, and chilling stories.
Are the men who patrol the compound protecting the teenagers or are they up to something far more sinister? Are there really creatures hidden in the depths of the dense forests? And what happens to the teenagers when they leave the compound … do they go to a new life or is there a much darker fate awaiting them?
Alex is determined not to find out. He has an escape plan …
