Boot Camp by Todd
Strasser
Garrett is kidnapped from his home during the night and
brought to Lake Harmony, an alternative “school”, which promises parents their
children will return obedient, respectful, and polite using any means
necessary. The only problem is Garrett
doesn’t really belong there. Yes, maybe
he has smoked once in a while, skipped some days of school, and is seeing a
woman seven years older who used to be his teacher, but does this mean he is in
danger of ruining his life? Does this
merit being beaten within an inch of his life over and over again?
