First, go read this interview with Anthony Neil Smith. Then you'll definitely want to buy his book, which I've just finished and which I highly recommend.
The investigation grinds to a halt when he discovers that the young murderers have fled to Somalia to fight in the rebel army. He's at his wits' end when the father of one of the boys, an ex-gang leader named Mustafa, comes looking for answers, wanting to clear his son's name and refusing to take no for an answer.
Bleeker and Mustafa form an uneasy alliance, teaming up to help bring the boys back home to stand trial. But little do they know what Somalia has in store for them.
Murder, warfare, piracy, love, betrayal and revenge. ALL THE YOUNG WARRIORS is an epic thriller that will have you white-knuckling your eReader all through the night.

Wow! Not my normal read, but the set-up sounds terrific ...
Can't get it on Kindle in America. :(
I changed the link to the U. S. version, Mel.
Never heard of him.
(But the writing workshop he did at the library was well received.)
OK, I'm still feeling that I sounded like a tool. To clarify, I endorse Smith's abilities as both a teacher and a novelist. I've already read about 2.5 chapters of Young.
