Who has never wondered what it would be like to be obscenely wealthy? If you could own anything and do anything, how would you spend your time?

In The Compound by S.A. Bodeen, 15-year-old Eli begins to question the necessity of living in an underground compound, built by his billionaire father to escape nuclear disaster, when he discovers that the psychological cost to his family may be too high.

In this futuristic novel the tension builds to a frenzy of action as Eli makes a compelling bid for freedom.
