No Time for Tears

It didn't take long to find the two black briefcases hidden underneath a pile of dirty clothes. As he expected, both cases were locked, but it didn't take long to open them with a screwdriver from the tool drawer in the kitchen. Tommy's eyes popped wide open when he saw that the first briefcase was full of large bags of white powder. Probably heroin, Tommy thought. The second case was even more of a shock. It was full of money. Fourteen-year-old Tommy's life has not been the same since his mom met Dan. Tommy can deal with Dan's foul mouth and even fouler temper. He can even put up with Dan hitting him - but what he really can't stand is how much his mom has changed since she has been with him. Luckily, Tommy has the best group of friends in the world. Walt, David and Lewis are always there when he needs them. But when Tommy shows up at Walt's window in the middle of the night with two black briefcases, none of the friends could ever foresee the immense danger that lies ahead... No Time for Tears is a gripping, coming-of-age story which can be enjoyed by adults and young adults alike.
