Looking for an escape from childhood abuse, Reymundo Sanchez turned away from school and baseball to drugs, alcohol, and then sex, and was left to fend for himself before the age of 14. The Latin Kings, one of the largest and most notorious street gangs in America, became his refuge and his world, but its violence cost him friends, freedom, self-respect, and nearly his life. This is a raw and powerful odyssey through the ranks of the new mafia, where the only people more dangerous than rival gangs are members of your own gang, who in one breath will say they'll die for you and in the next will order your assassination. Buscando un escape del abuso juvenil que sufria, Reymundo Sanchez rechazo al colegio y al deporte y se adentro en un mundo de drogas, alcohol y sexo--todo antes de los 14 anos. Los Latin Kings, una de las maras mas grandes y mas notorias de los Estados Unidos, se volvio su familia y su mundo, pero la violencia de esa familia le costo sus amigos, su libertad, el respeto a si mismo y casi su vida. Esta es una odisea desgarrante a travez de la nueva mafia, donde las unicas personas mas peligrosas que las maras enemigas son las de la misma mara, que en un instante juran que moriran por sus miembros y segundos despues ordenan su asesinato.Sanchez, Reymundo is the author of 'Latin King Mi Vida Sangrienta', published 2007 under ISBN 9788495764478 and ISBN 8495764474.
