Brothers — Julian F. Thompson

Chris, 17, has always idolized his big brother Cam who served as his mentor after their own father died years before. Now Cam has disappeared after being placed in a mental institution, and Chris discovers some disturbing things about his brother. In the last few months, Cam has been acting very strange--living like a cat, for example, eating tuna, stalking things, and taking short naps. Chris is desperate to find out the truth, and begins a harrowing search for his beloved older brother. Along the way he is joined by two young women, Cam's only friend from the institution, Michelle and her sister Millie, who agree help him on his determined search. The three journey all the way to South Dakota, and an armed militia camp, where Cam is hiding out, a shadow of his former self. Now it's Chris's turn to be responsible if he is ever going to get his brother back.
