Sandtown is one of the deadliest neighbourhoods in the world it earned Baltimore its nickname Bodymore, Murderland, and was made notorious by The Wire. Drug deals dominate street corners and ruthless, casual violence abounds.Montana Barronette grew up in the centre of it all. The leader of the gang Trained to Go, or TTG, when he was finally arrested, he had been nicknamed Baltimores Number One Trigger Puller. Under Tanas reign, TTG dominated Sandtown. When a string of murders were linked to TTG, each with dozens of witnesses too intimidated to testify, three detectives set out to put Tana in prison for life. For them, this was never about drugs It was about serial murder.Acclaimed journalist Mark Bowden, who spent his youth in the white suburbs of Baltimore, returns to the city with exclusive access to the FBI files and unprecedented insight into one of the citys deadliest gangs and its notorious leader. As he traces the rise and fall of TTG, Bowden uses wiretaps, police interviews, trial transcripts and his own ongoing conversations with Tanas family and community to create the most indepth account of an innercity gang ever written.With his signature precision and propulsive narrative, Mark Bowden positions Tana as a boy, a gang leader, a killer, and now a prisoner in the context of Baltimore and America, illuminating his path for what it really was a life sentence.
