Jude is a witness to his own fathers murder. The drug dealers who shoot his father spare Judes life only after he promises not to tell what and who he saw. Read p. 29: If I was smart I promise.Later, at the police station, Jude is stunned by another event: he meets the mother he never knew. And shes the district attorney who is pressuring him to tell who killed his father.This crazy story gets even more complicated with the addition of a drug deal, a huge lie and Jude going to jail.this is a good book, 11/10 would definitely recommend
Fast paced story, with an unexpected twist in the end( which is pretty standard for these kind of novels I guess) the suspense was still overwhelming. It's encouraging to see people in books try their hardest at something, makes me want to do the same thing, to try harder. This book succeeded, I read it in one go and wanted to do more with my life 😂. Though the lack of ethics in some is hard to comprehend, one can't help but feel sad for the circumstance Jude is in.
Jude, a fifteen year old boy, witnesses the murder of his drug dealer father, and then during the investigation, discovers his long lost mother. As he tries to find a place in her life and to adjust to a completely new way of living, Jude is convinced to make a sacrifice to help his mother, but if he is not careful, things can go terribly wrong.Wow. This book. Really, I don't know what to say, other than if you are going to read it, you will reach a point where you have to keep reading or the
Jude is a story about the life of an adolescent named Jude journey in finding his mothers acceptance. During his expedition, he comes across many twists and turns involving drugs, family, and friends ultimately defining his character. In my opinion, being a book focused on the topic of drugs and a life of a young teenage boy, I was sceptical at first. However, with the authors smooth captivating writing style and choice of character styles/traits, it kept me interested all the way through. Kate
