The Wrong Hand

When two-year-old Benjamin is lured away from his mother at a shopping centre and brutally murdered, the last people anyone would suspect are two little boys . . .

Ten years later the perpetrators are released under new identities, living within the community they tore apart. With a hostile media determined to expose them and a grieving father vowing to avenge his child, just how long can their secret remain hidden?

Focusing on the aftermath of a shocking crime, Jane Jago challenges our ideas of childhood innocence and addresses the human need to comprehend what drives the worst in us all.
