With Scars to Show

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

An epic novel of transcendent love, personal journey, and perseverance, With Scars to Show is a gripping story of high-stakes survival in a deeply impoverished Honduran barrio.

Naomi is a mature teenage girl whose life collides with the warring Central American gangs that rule her community. Her love for Javier, an irresistible young gang member, has put her squarely in the crosshairs of their brutal retribution and endless cycle of violence. With no easy way to escape the death that threatens to destroy them both, Naomi must choose: abandon the only love she’s ever known, or stand up to the deep-rooted corruption and brutality that controls their world.

At once a devastating portrait of social inequality and the conflict between the powerful and the powerless, With Scars to Show is an extraordinary testament to the enduring fight for human dignity in a world where no one fights back if they want to live to see another day.
