Acerca de esta escucha
The Florida State reform school, notorious for its abuses, is now in the headlines for more than just abusing its guests. Bodies are being discovered and the deaths are referred to as being the most brutal killings of the century. This is mainly because the boys were young and some innocent. Not everyone that stayed at the Dozier school was guilty of a crime but rather simply had nowhere else to go. Some residents around the area where the school was built have other thoughts in regards to the oddities they have witnessed since the school's closure.
Shadows, colorless shapes, and eerie sightings were also present within the area the school was located. No one knows the whole story - and we may never have an ending to the mysterious happenings within the school's walls - but there is one thing for sure, something evil caused the boys to be murdered.
Boot Hill is the location where the bones are being discovered. Some of the shallow graves held children as young as six to 10 years old. No one can say they all died of natural causes when bullet holes were left in the backs of their skulls. No honorable burial, no notification to their next of kin or anything that a normal death would require.
This story is fiction based on true recollections, events or whichever word you might want to use. The author doesn't claim to know the whole story - no one really does - but what she does do is make it come full circle, so that an ending could be had.

Hidden far from sight, deep in the thick underbrush of the North Florida woods are the ghostly graves of more than 30 unidentified bodies, some of which are thought to be children who were beaten to death at the old Florida Industrial School for Boys at Marianna. It is suspected that many more bodies will be found in the fields and swamplands surrounding the institution.

Some true crimes reveal themselves in bits and pieces over time. One such case is the Florida School for Boys, a.k.a. the Dozier School, a place where - rather than reforming the children in their care - school officials tortured, raped, and killed them. Opened in 1900, the school closed in 2011 after a Department of Justice investigation substantiated allegations of routine beatings and killings made by about 100 survivors. Thus far, forensic anthropologist Dr. Erin Kimmerle and her team from the University of South Florida have uncovered 55 sets of human remains.

When Elwood Curtis, a black boy growing up in 1960s Tallahassee, is unfairly sentenced to a juvenile reformatory called the Nickel Academy, he finds himself trapped in a grotesque chamber of horrors. Elwood’s only salvation is his friendship with fellow “delinquent” Turner, which deepens despite Turner’s conviction that Elwood is hopelessly naive, that the world is crooked, and that the only way to survive is to scheme and avoid trouble.

It is a society that is, officially, a paradise. Superior to the decadent West, Stalin's Soviet Union is a haven for its citizens, providing for all of their needs: education, health care, security. In exchange, all that is required is their hard work, and their loyalty and faith to the Soviet State. But now a murderer is on the loose.

Two days ago, everything changed. Two days ago, the people I should trust the most became strangers in my convoluted head. The dreams I have can't be real. The fleeting memories that whisper through my mind are scary and wrong...they have to be. If they aren't, I have something much worse to fear than my fractured mind. I need to find out the truth, even if it destroys me.

Ridley Pearson brings us the origins of the rivalry between literature's most famous enemies - Sherlock Holmes and James Moriarty - told from the perspective of James' observant little sister, Moria. Before James grew up to be a ruthless, remorseless villain, he was a curious boy from Boston, with a penchant for trouble and an acid tongue. Thrown into a boarding school against his wishes, James winds up rooming with a most unlikely companion: a lanky British know-it-all named Sherlock Holmes.
