More about the book
Sometimes guns speak louder than words That's what Shorty and Alberto think at least. To them, it seems like the only people in their town who command respect are the drug dealers. The drug dealers are rich. They're powerful. They're not afraid of anybody. So when Alberto gets a job as a hit man for a drug dealer, he's happy. His family won't starve. He'll be a big shot. He thinks his life has finally begun. But in this tough South American town, twelve-year-old assassins are disposable. And it won't be long before Alberto and Shorty find this out.
