Publisher's Synopsis
Andre Paul Zaayer, known to all as APZ, is a high-profile lawyer in his sixties who thinks in terms not of good and evil but of legal and illegal. He feels all he needs to understand is how to work around the law, how to dodge being caught, and how to slip out of the legal system when caught within it-helpful knowledge, particularly given his involvement in the sale of illegal narcotics. Then there's Dazz Brooks, an ambitious, talented young rapper. Freshly released from prison-where he had landed for his own involvement in dealing drugs-Dazz is determined to launch a legitimate career in the music industry. He knows APZ has connections in the music industry through his night club, so even though Dazz hopes to avoid any further involvement with the drug trade, he looks to the lawyer for help in planning his new start. APZ capitalizes on Dazz's hope and poverty, twisting his ambitions back into a life of crime and violence that spirals both of their lives into devastation. Inspired by a higher power, Dazz yearns to break free of APZ's bondage. But only time will tell whether he will succeed. A modern take on the story of Pharaoh and Moses, this novel follows one man's journey toward a new destiny as he makes choices that could change his life forever.
