In Darkness (#2)

This boy stuck in the hospital still hasnt said his name.  But he truly just wants his twin sister to be alive and his manman to be happy. He hasnt seen his sister since a gang killed his dad and supposedly    kidnapped marguerite (his sister).  I think one of the themes that is surfacing is that the greatest sacrifices give the greatest consecuenses, good or bad. He has joined a gang to help get money for his family, get it so many kids can go to schooling even if they cant afford it. He is in a feared but respected gang called Route 9.  He has had to kill before, although hes not proud of it, he did it for the people.  In this are in Haiti called the site, the government is pretty much just run by gangs and rich men, which are very scarce. This book is kinda weird in the sense that it is running in not one, but two time periods, every other chapter is called "Now" and the other is called "Then" which i think is very interesting.
