Snitchers
(Book)
Years ago Nia lost her father to the violence plaguing her small Indiana city, but when the five-year-old boy she babysits for is killed in a drive-by shooting, she and her friends decide enough is enough and set out to find the murderer--never anticipating how close to home that investigation will lead.
Life in their small Midwestern city hasn't been the same since Nia Barnes's father was shot down in the middle of the night with no witnesses. The unsolved murder has haunted Nia ever since, and the violence isn't just where she lives-- it's everywhere. When the little boy she babysits is caught in the crossfire of a drive-by shooting, it devastates the community. Nia and her friends Dontay and Miracle Ruth want to do more than be sad and afraid: they set out to find who murdered Little Petey and get him justice. They look up police reports and listen to the conversations of their elders; they try to follow suspects. But the search for truth isn't straightforward. If Nia and her friends solve the crime, more people might end up dead. Is that justice? Should they still try? -- adapted from jacket.
