Tears of a Tiger was a great book the boy will get killed in an accident and his best friend wont anyone to turn to. So he blamed his self for his best friend killin so he is so out of control. All of his friend dont kno what to do with him anymore. One day when he gets so fed up with his parents (he had bad problems at home with his family) he went upstairs and killed hisself with a gun in his room. This should take u to the next book Forged By Fire... this is an awesome book to read.... Then after u read that than read the sequal that is Darkness Before Dawn..
