Steve is 16 and on trial as an accomplice to murder. This is his first person account of the trial and his time in juvenile detention.
This book is amazing.
Steve tells the story in the form of a film script. We see everything from his perspective as the
court case goes on. It illuminates the
feelings that prisoners have and how they interact with each other without
preaching to the reader. I would recommend
this to boys especially those who have trouble staying with a story. The story is fast and the illustrations help
to highlight the action and move the story along.
