From the sun-drenched streets of Guadalajara to the cold shadows of Toronto's underworld, a family's legacy is a debt that must be paid in blood, cash, or a final, desperate chance at redemption.
Daniel, a quiet boy uprooted from his home, is thrust into a new life in Canada with two half-brothers he barely knows and a father who is more of a ghost than a parent. When a single act of cruelty on Christmas Day shatters their fragile family, the brothers are cast out, forced to find their own way in a city that promises everything but gives nothing for free.
For Daniel, survival means playing a dangerous game. What begins as petty crime to stave off hunger spirals into a meticulously planned career of high-stakes bank heists. Alongside a loyal crew, he becomes a master of the score, building a facade of power and wealth to insulate himself from the wounds of his past.
But the echoes of a fractured family are relentless. As his ambition grows, so does his paranoia. When a bitter betrayal leads to a spectacular downfall, Daniel loses everything, forcing him to confront the man he has become and the long road back from the abyss.
Echoes of a Fractured Son
is a gritty, emotionally-charged crime saga about the invisible wounds of family, the allure of the criminal life, and the difficult path to reclaiming one's soul. Perfect for fans of Dennis Lehane, S.A. Cosby, and Attica Locke.
