Two powerful personalities are on a collision course in this rocket-fast novel about money and power.
Tokus Stone is a man caught between what he knows and what he knows is right, between the fortune of crime on the one hand and the conviction of law on the other. Way Jalon, on the other side of the spectrum, rules the city with an iron fist, presiding over an empire of wealth and influence. Armed with a dangerous new secret, he vows to remake the fabric of society by his own standards—and Tokus Stone will be his perfect gamble.
This edge-of-your seat novel traces the lives of a street hustler and an affluent businessman from their sharply contrasting paths to their final confrontation—a confrontation only one of them will survive.
