Use the wiles they observed on the streets the violence they learned at Wilkinson.If they get caught this time they only have one thing left to their lives.SLEEPERS is the extraordinary true story of four men who take the law into their own hands. It is a searing portrait of a system gone awry and of the people -- some innocent some not so innocent -- who must suffer the consequences. At the heart of SLEEPERS is a sensational murder trial that ultimately gives devastating yet exhilarating proof of street justice and truly defines the meaning of loyalty and love between friends. Told with great humor and compassion even at its most harrowing SLEEPERS is an unforgettable reading experience.</p> Arrow hardcover
