What if you discovered that the father you never knew is actually a superhero? Eighteen-year-old Lucas leads a pretty normal life with his mother in a small town. But his life changes when his mother is killed during an attack on the trailer park where they live. Lucas's life then becomes anything but "normal". He learns that the father he never knew is actually billionaire Clayton Hartwell...and Clayton Hartwell is actually "The Raptor", a superhero vigilante who protects innocents from evil. But The Raptor is ill and worries about what will happen when he is no longer around. So he decides to train his son Lucas to become the next Raptor. Lucas soon discovers that lines between "good" and "evil" are sometimes blurred and realizes that his father crosses those lines.
I was surprised that I enjoyed this book as much as I did. It definitely resembles the Batman story, but good characters and surprising plot twists make it work.
