Three boys, abducted by their mentally unstable father, navigate a harrowing journey of chaos, mistreatment, and violence.
A father, convinced of the omnipotence of the guiding voices in his head, leads his family to a horrendous conclusion of mayhem. After accusing his wife of an adulterous relationship, he kidnaps his three sons.
Taken from their mother and their home, the boys have to follow the rules of their alcoholic father and his guiding voices. Many tattered trailer parks become their new home, where they experience physical and mental abuse, mental illness, chaos and murder.
The murder is so heinous it becomes national news and leads to a celebrity-driven murder trial, where appearances seem more valid than the actual truth.
They all find different ways to navigate the misguided path on which they were placed.
What kind of men will these boys become?
This psychological thriller is a roller coaster ride of events that sometimes horrifies, sometimes amuses, and even seems frighteningly plausible in our current society’s framework.

Excerpt from Voices In Blood © Copyright 2023 G. B. Reese
…my dad jumped up, turning the table over in a rage. All the chips, beer and pizza flew to the ground. The commotion knocked me over and onto the ground as well. I got up to see that my dad had Jack by the throat, his feet off the ground.
I jumped up and plowed into my dad, which caused him to release Jack. Even though I had grown into a muscular build of a man, my dad was still bigger than me.
I was rolling on the ground with my dad, trying to keep him from getting to Jack. Jack was trying to catch his breath, gagging on the ground next to the spray of chips and spilled beer.
Then suddenly I felt a burning hot pain in the back of my leg, so painful my eyes began to tear. Then another pain hit me in the back of my arm, oh god, then my side.
I finally stopped rolling and held my side to ease the pain. I felt a warm wetness there. I looked at my hand, it was bloody. Confused, I look up to see Julien standing over me with a blood soaked knife.
