A teenage boy is stabbed and left bleeding on the street — and nobody knows why. His mum can’t understand why this happened, she wants to know how he ended up there — but does she really want to hear the answers?
A gripping, gritty and moving story about crime and the ripple effect it has across people and lives. A personal, conversational read that talks right to us, not a lot happening but letting us into a life cut short by being the wrong person at the wrong time in a world of gangs, crime and neglect. It's a tiny book, but it's high impact and full of emotion.

Such a heartbreaking read. I really enjoyed learning about the culture and the way that this culture comes together in hard times but run away in bad times. It was such a raw and honest story and the way the author wrote about it was done in such a respectful way xxx
