Trial By Friendship

After being bullied by two troubled teens, three nine-year-old boys put together a plan to stand up to the bullies, but an “accident” at the park bathroom results in the death of one bully and serious injury to the other. Now the three young boys may face these charges. While recovering at the hospital, the whole truth is finally told by the surviving bully. When the bully is requested to apologize to the three young boys, a new friendship between the bully and his victims begins. But is this friendship real? Will the bully betray his new friends for money? These are just some of the questions asked. At the end of each chapter are questions that ask how you would handle the situations. Filled with thrills, action, twists and suspense, Trial of Friends is about friendship, forgiveness and listening to others.

On July 20, 1944, Adolf Hitler narrowly escaped an assassination attempt. He found the main conspirators, and quickly had them strung up on meat hooks. Axel, Count von Gottberg, was one of those hanged by Hitler. Sixty years later, Conrad Senior, a former student of one of Axel's most trusted friends, comes across some of Axel's personal letters and is immediately drawn into a dangerous web of jealousy, passion, and betrayal. The more he scrambles to uncover the truth, the more complex he finds the relationship between the two friends. Wonderfully written-and based on true events-The Song Before It is Sung is a novel of profound and sensitive insight into the human condition, surpassing all Cartwright's previous works in its scope and ambition.
