Struggling to come up with funds to pay for the hospital bills necessary to save a sick baby's life, a twenty-four-year-old Nem is forced to take a loan from a local mafioso, a decision that plunges him into the heart of Rio's criminal underworld. Over the next sixteen years, as he grows in stature, Nem will try to bring welfare and justice to a playground of gang culture and destitution.Drawn from years of in-person interviews and told with humanity and warmth-Nemesis is an unflinching, dramatic investigation into the rise of a crime lord in Rio and the menacing conditions of life inside the favela.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51738853966112,"sku":"NEW0345806832","price":18.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/91JVMFEH1HL.jpg?v=1779614450","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/nemesis-one-man-and-the-battle-for-rios-biggest-slum-0345806832","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
