About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Raphael is a dumpsite boy. He spends his days wading through mountains of steaming trash, sifting it, sorting it, breathing it, sleeping next to it.

Then one unlucky-lucky day, Raphael's world turns upside down. A small leather bag falls into his hands. It's a bag of clues. It's a bag of hope. It's a bag that will change everything.

Soon Raphael and his friends Gardo and Rat are running for their lives. Wanted by the police, it takes all their quick-thinking, fast-talking to stay ahead. As the net tightens, they uncover a dead man's mission to put right a terrible wrong.

And now it's three street-boys against the world....

The story has important themes of corruption and poverty. It is told in the various voices of the characters, which keeps your interest.

Loved this book. Great characters, high stakes, and a super important theme on the ambiguity of individual morality and justice under corrupt regimes. The multiple narrators were excellent too!

I loved the story line and the action sequences that happen throughout the book. I loved the way that the police are more of an enemy to Raphael and his friends although I would have loved more detail into Senator Zapanta as he was the main villain in the story.

Great for all ages. The different voices really made it come to life. The book was written so as to bring the world the boys were in, to life in my mind.

Great story
