Bradley by Jonah Frick

A despondent social worker fights to save the soul of a young boy with telekinetic abilities and dangerous powers in Jonah Frick’s Bradley, a wild, surrealist journey into the heart of government manipulation and corruption. After his adoptive parents’ mysterious death, 11-year-old Bradley Gaff is transported to a strange federal reform school called the Justice Center, where the staff has sinister intentions for his future. While sometimes the dialogue can be a little stiff, Frick’s brisk propulsive prose, imaginative time-traveling plot, and unexpected otherworldly twists will keep readers turning the pages, and feels like a movie in the making.
