Publisher's summary

Growing up, Jazir was taught that if he maintained good grades and did the right things, he would be able to live his dream life. He decided to follow the advice path––no sex before marriage, never breaking any laws, no drinking, no smoking–– a dedicated straight-A student. After graduating college, however, he failed to land a job and ended up homeless–– living in a tent on the streets of Los Angeles with his wife and son. Tragedy strikes in their tent–– he loses his wife to sickness, and his son––Jalob, is kidnapped right in the middle of his grieving. The kidnapping–– orchestrated by a childless family with connections to corrupt police officers, sends him down the darkest spiral of his life–– challenging everything he stood for and believed in. He vows never to stop fighting for Jalob's return and is prepared to do whatever it takes to get him back.

Impressed by his resume, Lyria offers him the opportunity of a lifetime–– the end of his struggling days, and the ability to get his son back–– provided he can survive a mission inside one of the city's most corrupt criminal organizations. With no family other than Jalob, and no instruction book on being a widow, he's forced to start life over–– Embarking on a journey the opposite of the path he had planned.

A fast-building drama, a slow-building love story–– every sentence is patiently and poetically written. A story that questions the very meaning of family, friendship, and love. Henrio, Lucia, Ceyrah Clarra, Sandi, Jazir, Jalob, Hoya, and Supa Rodger make for an unforgettable ensemble of characters. A story that will stick with you long after you've read the final paragraph.

Genre: Urban fiction, African American, with a mafia underworld theme.

Don't waste you time.

To many characters for one short book. Ends not completed. Horrible language and writing. Parts don't tie together. I certainly hope my book club paid a bill for this author this month. NEVER AGAIN.
