Publisher's Synopsis
BASED ON A TRUE STORY...
This short story is a prelude to the upcoming novel Twenty End the Sequel, please join Dee on his transitioning from his middle-class lifestyle to poverty and subcoming to the evils of the street gangs and drugs. The money and the power is not always what it seems to be, a high price to pay always follow. Take a journey with Dee as he deals with Drugs & Gangs, while trying to keep his spirituality and strong religious beliefs. The temptation of money and sex, or salvation and everlasting life. Twenty End is a valid and disturbing look at growing up African-American in the 80s and 90s. Gang violence and crackcocaine changed the face of this country, and this era is illustrated well by Dee and his experinces. Whether Dee survives this and thrives, or is taken down by the lifestyle he leads is yet to be seen.
"A tough-edge, sprawling gang epic. Think "Colors" meets "American Gangster" set in the 80s and 90s."
"I like the idea of a sprawling tale that chronicles the rise of gangs and drug trade throughout the 80s and 90s. "Scarface" or "New Jack City" for the new millenium."
"This is a tough, realistic look about a dark, gritty urban nightmare landscape. You dont shy away from portraying the dark corners of the American dream. Memorable and intense."
