Everything's a lie

Orange City by Lee Matthew Goldberg Graham Weatherend considers himself a lucky one. He committed a crime and was offered a once-in-a-lifetime chance to be sent to a secret island where all of the criminals are given a last chance to change their ways and start fresh. E is a Scout on the island. He has been in Graham's life before, doing as The Man demands. He was a foster father for young Graham who, on The Man's request did everything in his power to beat down the poor boy. The child only wanted and needed love, but he got only pain and agony from E. Now, that Graham is an adult, his life is getting ready to coincide with E's life once again. The Man is a controller. He owns the island and enslaves everyone on it. Everything they do is for him. He has had some surgeries that have given him spider-like arms, mechanical, yet fleshy. The Man has invented a new way to control his population, to get them to work for him in the ways that he wants. Graham thinks at first, that he has been given a bonus, to get to be a guinea pig to try out a new beverage Pow! for The Man. He realizes as time goes on, that there is a madness to the different rainbow colors and flavors of the new Pow! There is an addictive quality to the beverage and you can't stop, once you get your first taste. What can he do? He rebels.
