Sleepers

  • Author: Lorenzo Carcaterra
  • Description:
    An unforgettable true story of friendship, loyalty and revenge. Lorenzo, Michael, John and Tommy shared everything- the laughter abd the bruises of an impoverished childhood on New York's violent side. Until one of their pranks misfired and they were sent to a reformatory school. Twelve months of systematic mental, physical and sexual abuse left the boys transformed forever. Eleven years later, one of them had become a journalist, one a lawyer and the other two killers for the mob. In a chance encounter they came face to face with one of the torturers and shot him dead in front of several witnesses. The trial that followed brought the four friends together in one last, audacious stand-and a courtroom climax as gripping as any John Grisham novel.
