The beginning of this book started out kinds of intresting. I loved the way the main police detective in the plot of this story had 10 adopted kids that he continued 2 care 4 & protect even after his wife, whose orginal decision 2 adopt these kids, passed away. The main story had 2 deal wit a psychotic control killer who was able 2 convince others 2 do his "dirty work" 4 him by going after rich & famous executives that ran businesses that dealt with taking money from the poor & spending it on themselves & their loved ones. So these "followers" decided 2 take the verdicts of the jury n2 their own hands & begin with a warning 2 these rich, fat, liars 2 put an end 2 their stealing & pushing the poor, unstable people that were asking them 4 the help that they had originally promised them n2 a more unstable life that eventually lead 2 thier deaths & the loss of loved ones. These killers planted bombs, set fires, & adminstered poison 2 the big-wigs of the rich & famous taking from them their lives & family 2 make their points proven.

After losing his daughter's innocence to two white men, that brutally raped and physically abused her, to the point she almost died. Her father decided that justice was not going to be served because of the state they lived in and how they were treated for being African American, he decided to take justice into his own hands and shot and killed both men that attacked his little girl. After being arrested, standing up to the KKK, and being exposed to the world, in this southern state, a lawyer comes to fight the court system and help this man find peace, for himself, his child, and his family. This novel made me cry, and stand tall for justice to be given where it was rightfully needed. This was a great court room drama, with my worst fears for my child was put on trial.

Do you know how you would react if you became trapped in high school, snow so deep you could'nt go anywhere and no adult supervision? This is what happened to seven teens, a mix of them that knew each other by name and three that grew up together as best friends. Four days go by as these young adults get to know each other better and their personalities combined together to survive hunger, fear, sleep deprivation and the cold. Terrified of freezing to death with no heat and only canned fruits and peanut butter and jelly to eat they fight to find ways to keep their minds focused only the only thing they have to hold onto and that is hope. On the fifth day it was discovered that no one knew where they were and that they were trapped, panic exploded within the small group of boys and girls. Chaos erupts when the weight of the snow causes the roof of the school to begin caving in on top of them and they have no where to run to so one brave boy decides to attempt facing the weather and going for help. There is an accident and he doesnt make it only leading to more bouts of fear and terror. The basketball star decides to try next at least in honor of the best friend he just lost to this natural diaster. Just when he has spent hours walking and fighting in the snow and thinking that he was lost and never going to find help he is rescued by the National Guard and he is able to tell his story about his friends that were still alive, left behind at the school that was being buried alive under the snow and the fear that they would not be able to last much longer. Did they get the help they needed?
