Guilty As Sin

All Michael wanted was a safe and loving home and family. By the age of ten, his father had died from a drug overdose, his older brother was someplace in the foster care system, and his mother was in prison. In and out of multiple foster homes, he was finally adopted by his "forever family."
Instead, three weeks before his eleventh birthday, his autistic friend pulled Michael's limp body from the water. Did he drown by slipping on rocks and then fall, or was he murdered? Were the ravens right to warn him? Who was the dark shadow behind him? Why would anything this horrible befall such a young and innocent child?

The author "assembles all the pieces of the puzzle," to unravel this "inspired by true events" mystery through the lens of Detective Russ Wyatt.
