About this ebook
The Compound protects the remnants of often horrific human experimentation during World War II. Now a new generation comes of age, some with strange powers and abilities, groomed to be weapons for justice.
Mason and Jordie are young men, each with a special gift and strongly attracted to each other. When they finally reach out and really connect, they must also be careful. Mason can become intangible like a mist, then completely whole and solid again -- even during sex. Jordie is a nine foot tall giant, able to leap great distances in a single bound. Together they face challenges in figuring out sex and love.
When a woman in their group at The Compound appears to be kidnapped, Mason and Jordie must put aside their own secrets to help her. But they soon discover everyone secrets, and not everyone in The Compound is who they seem.

Behemoth and the Wisp
By Linn Edwards
Prologue
To tell you about Behemoth and the Wisp, you must know this first.
It’s called a Widow’s Walk in certain places where large family homes overlook cliffs and the sea. It is where a woman who loved a sea mariner would go to watch for the return of her father, husband, brother, or son. From atop the large house she could see over the cliffs and watch the horizon for storms in the distance. Oft times she could feel the foreshadowing of disaster from the very air.
The woman known only as Madame walks her own unique parapet atop a structure that did, from a distance, resemble a large, old-fashioned mansion from times long gone. Her ramrod stance as she looked over the Ohio River Valley, able to see the Ohio River from the Ohio side facing the foothills of the Appalachians on the Kentucky side of the bank, cast a silhouette against the evening sky. As with the woman, the house holds many secrets not the least a place deep underneath the hillside on which it appears the house sits—the place called The Compound by those in the know.
It is not often Madame reflects on her past, but indeed there are things in the air and events moving in a certain direction so she must consider the past, the present, and the future.

In the midst of World War II, a young female scientist found herself part of a research group headed by the brilliant Nazi madman, Dr. Josef Mengele. She was placed in charge of genetically altered children and teens. The survivors of these experiments had powers and abilities far beyond those of normal humans. They had been groomed to be Super Soldiers of the Third Reich. Five survived the experimental ordeal and all five pleaded with the woman they called Madame to get them out of the hands of Mengele and Hitler.
Taking the young people and using their abilities, she masterminded an escape and the destruction of the laboratory facility with those secrets hopefully lost forever. Once in Switzerland, Madame contacted the Allies and brought her charges to England and from there these five super-soldiers fought against the Reich on secret missions.
Rumors of their presence and heroics spread throughout the front. Back home, comic book companies used these rumors as seeds
