I drew my knees up and huddled in the corner. How the hell did I get myself into this mess? I kept askin myself. Brutal is every boy's worst nightmare, come true for Al 'Crow' Fletcher. It is the harrowing, true story of life inside one of Queenslands most feared institutions for orphaned, disadvantaged and Aboriginal youth.

This is it. Foreword by Senator Andrew Murray, Senator for Western Australia
