Duwayne Brooks

The Stephen Lawrence tragedy - the night that changed race relations in Britain forever - is well known. Duwayne Brooks was Stephen's best friend and this is his story. It is one of friendship, of courage, a story of what really happened on the night of 22 April, 1993. It is also a warm, and in places heartbreaking account of someone who found themselves in circumstances too appalling to contemplate. As Duwayne's own story, the book also focuses on the way he himself was treated, both by his lawyer and the police, and sheds light on the manner in which the whole ordeal has been handled.
