A missing father. A lifetime of secrets. An ancient evil. Daniel Wester graduated from college two months ago. He has a degree in history, a pile of student loan debt, and no job prospects in sight. When his dad mysteriously vanishes inside their locked home, Daniel finds an old box covered in strange symbols, a creepy collection of books about demonology, instructions to find an aunt he's never met, and driving directions that lead him across the United States to a threatening iron security fence in the middle of nowhere. Daniel makes the journey there with his best friend, Lena, a recent nursing school graduate. On the other side of the fence, they discover a secret colony of demon hunters- a community his father abandoned decades ago, they tell him, though Dad never mentioned this place. Daniel's reality is flipped upside down as he, Lena, and the members of this strange off-the-grid community team up to find his father- and battle the demon they believe took him. Can Daniel save his father from a threat he never imagined existed? Or will these evil supernatural forces destroy him and everyone he loves? Fast-paced and full of suspense, The Compound is a fun, captivating mystery that combines pagan folklore, demon hunters, family secrets, and a hint of romance into a thrilling adventure that will keep you turning pages way past your bedtime. Perfect for fans of Supernatural and The Walking Dead, The Compound is book one in a duology with book two set for release in 2025.
