The Unthinkable: Song of the Sertão - Wounds of South America, #3

Brazil 1990sA problematic social issue, a unit called to respond. A man struggles to right his wrong."If I had said 'no, ' instead of 'yes' when they asked me to do this thing, then maybe I would have turned out a hero instead of what I've become. We were trained, hired with the promise of a good wage, to take care of a problem, to get things under control. As a man, I needed to succeed for myself, for my family living in a cycle of poverty in the sertão, the backlands.
The earnings proved excellent, and far outweighed the promises made by the controlling peasant guerrillas. But the other part of it. If I knew then what I know now.I can't live with myself.I can't live. If I could take it back. Everything I've done-Ach, who could do such things? And if one could, then who would forgive such things?"This is the story of one man's dark path to redemption.
