Anyhow, I'm torn on this one. It follows a group of 4 friends - hard kids, into trouble all the time, anger problems, rage. When one disappears, the others begin to turn on each other.

It follows the same themes as Dos . . .'s Crime & Punishment - which is explained clearly in the book, you don't have to have read Russian lit to get it. What is a crime? What is fair punishment? If you're a bystander to a crime how guilty are you?

Great ideas and plot. Pretty good characters. Definitely worth a read. Just wasn't sold on how far the boys would really go - some of their ideas were out there . . . yet, at times, they had me convinced . . .

All in all, intriguing.
