Product Description
Arnie Carver was once Thayne Davidson Miller, III, who hated his very existence as a billionaire couple s speed-reading child prodigy. His parents security guards kept him safe from harm, but only at the high price of keeping him far from everything else a kid wanted to do. Constantly flying around the world on their private jet tending to fifty family-owned companies in their international conglomerate could have been fun, but he only got to be locked up in the executive offices or plants with no one but adults. He hated his life as the billionaires kid, until, of course, on his thirteenth birthday, when he became a billionaire orphan. Terrorists supposedly claimed to have killed Thayne's folks because they were successful American imperialists who exploited the masses around the world, but Thayne is suspicious as no definitive murderers can be found. He sets out on a quest to somehow learn what really happened. Doing so as himself, however, would be impossible. Fearing for his own life and wanting to become a part of the world instead of apart from it, he replaces himself with a lifelike robot made by one of his inherited companies and then adopts an alter-ego to prepare for his new life and mission by attending a tropical island based international high school, the Global Optimum Development Academy, as Arnie Carver.
