When Sean Riley (not the DA ward councillor candidate) is appointed as a teacher at St Jude’s Secondary School in Crawley, he finds himself sucked into their nightmare world of drug addiction, child prostitution, paedophilia and murder.
Tough, resourceful and resilient, he puts his life on the line to wean his heroin and cocaine-addicted pupils off the drugs, and to survive, he has to become as merciless as the drug cartel’s ruthless pushers and hitmen. Riley’s vengeance is terrible.
Based on true events, All God’s Children delivers twists, turns and all the emotional drama, unforgettable characters that will make it hard for you to put this book down.
