Vahşi Başlangıçlar-Ciltli

It took only twenty-two minutes for Kirby Matheson to exit his car, cross school grounds, enter the gym, open fire, and kill six people and wound five. However, this book you are about to read is not the story of the armed attack. It is not a moment by moment reenactment of that unforgettable day.

This is the story of how a sixteen-year-old boy who had friends, loved reading, played the saxophone in the band, and had never gotten into trouble before came to school with a loaded gun and became a monster who could shoot his classmates. In each episode, from the perspective of a different victim, the pieces of the puzzle of who Kirby is and who he has become come together, step by step. Some memories are fond, some quite dark; Others are about seemingly unrelated fights, first kisses, or parties.

Behind all the doors, the inevitable end awaits you.
