Duwayne Brooks was the kid out with Stephen Lawrence when they were attacked and Steve was murdered. The book gives Duwayne's account of that night along with the aftermath, and the story of how it has affected his life. It is an interesting insight into what it is like to be caught up in events beyond control and how slowly the wheels of British justice turn.
