Silent Soldiers

They are broken, bruised, and troubled. But Waylon Academy will make them perfect. Even if it kills them.

In a not so distant future America, a combination of the troubled teen epidemic and a lack of young people joining the military has spawned the Waylon Academy for the Obedient and Enlightened. A school made to kidnap delinquent children, at the behest of their parents, and train them in an elite super soldier program. A place where they break students down in order to build them up into killing machines.

When Naomi is taken and thrown into the silent room, she realizes that this is the first step of a long system meant to brainwash her into a shell of herself. But she refuses to play their game. As she goes through the school, she knows that she will not graduate. She will not let the system win. She plans her escape, meets friends and unlikely allies. But the more she learns, the more she realizes the truth.

There is no escape, only service. Graduate or die.
