The Maplethorn Initiative

Fifteen-year-old Cameron Drexler made a mistake. A simple, honest, and very illegal mistake. Knowing his son’s actions could derail his career, Cam’s father, Congressman David Drexler, has him shipped off to Maplethorn Academy.

Not quite a prison and not quite a school, Maplethorn is a place where the wealthy and well-connected lock away boys who are lawbreakers, troublemakers, or simply unwanted. But when his roommate disappears, Cam fears Maplethorn is hiding a darker secret.

Caught looking for answers in a part of the academy that is off-limits to cadets, Cam is pressured into volunteering for a new type of behavioral therapy. At first, he doesn’t feel any different. That is until he discovers he can send a paper airplane shooting across the room without touching it.

Welcome to Maplethorn.
