A new leader, DOK HOLLIDAY, who has come home after serving 20 years in prison, is given the reigns of the gang.

Or will Clarkola and his Smack Mobb retire the old Legend for good?
Meanwhile, BATMAN is on a quest to prove Black Lives Matter by killing one cop at a time. S.A.C. ANDREATTA and her FBI team has been called in to lead the manhunt for the nation's most dangerous fugitive. The race is on! Will the Feds be able to stop the cop slayings before others join the cause? Or will Batman teach them that Revenge Is Promised (R.I.P.)

so much tragedies grab Kleenex
Even though there’s a few errors I still think the story deserves a 5 stars. Overall, this’s is one of the saddest storyline I ever read. It behooves me to see a group of great intellectuals to come together and build an empire and profit billions of dollars together and turn on each other and kill each other like you were strangers. The betrayal, disloyalty and lack of compassion and love was real. My heartache for all these young lives. And Lawd I don’t understand the street life but how could they do Clark like that, they just stole his life. I would be scared of all these people, they’re all so sneaky, scheming and conniving, I could never trust any of them. And what’s up with all this pillow talking, these men tell these women entirely too much.

Now, I enjoyed books 1 & 2. They were gritty, they were full of action and betrayal. Plus, I love a good shoot out scene. Dekari up the ante with book 3.
Do you want a gangster? Then you want Voorheez. I think Dekari did a good job of developing the characters by giving us some backstory it humanized them. You get some insight into the challenges that were faced just because of the color of their skin. The running them "Black Lives Matter" was well captured and ties directly into the fight for racial equality that still exists today.
As expected there was a lot of action and the potential for an unexpected romance. Batman was a standout character for me as well.
I would recommend this to anyone wanting a well-written view of street life.

Well damn
Clark finally got his due, but i didn't think Voorheeze would be tbeone to kill him bc he was his brother. I can't wait too read part 4 to c if batman gets caught and if Dok's team and Voorheeze's come together again or be at war with each other

Books 1 & 2 were lit!! I love the way you tell your stories, you're very descriptive, precise and to the point. An action packed page Turner! I kind of see where you're going with Voorhees love life but, PLEASE, PLEASE! Dont have this gangster that I love and my girlfriends love end up with a cop! Frfr? He's as gangster as they come! Love what Doks doing and Gunz as well. Keep up the excellent work! Would have given 5 ⭐'s but I didnt like the way you're going with Voorhees love interest. Out of all people a COP!

Wth!!! Exceptionally well done.
This one was gangster banging. I didn't see that ending coming. New Jack City is still one of my favorite movies. Voorhees is too gangster. I love Batman's craziness and how he is taking up for those killed by these trifling officers, even if it is wrong.
