A heart breaking true story that is any parent's nightmare! A mother's account of her 15 year old son being kidnapped and killed for a debt his half brother owes a drug dealing teen whom everyone is afraid to cross for fear of what will happen to themselves. Lots of repetition in the details. The beloved son was not an angel with some wild behaviors of his own, but hadn't deserved his fate. The author is a woman who suffered a loss no parent should ever have to face and an almost 10 year waiting to have all people responsible brought to justice. If you like true crime I would recommend this book, but be aware that it drags in places due to repetition of the happenings. I think I will have to watch the movie now.
