Nightmare

by Prince a Tauhid, Katrina M Breier (Editor)

Almost nine years after being arrested, convicted and sentenced to life plus in federal prison for Murder, Continuance Of a Criminal Enterprise (CCE), and Kingpin related charges, the man known on the streets only as "Nightmare", is on the verge of having his convictions tossed, eager to return with a vengeance, and is drawn to his gang's turf, Chicago, IL, even though it's not safe for him to be there. While inside, he was referred to, researched, and retained legal help of a female lawyer, Jettica "ReeRee" Jackson, to fight at getting him from under being "buried alive" and eventually resurrected. Throughout the attorney-client privilege, the two become more acquainted on a personal level, and fall for one another. The relationship is to bear a severe price on both ends as it progresses. Nightmare has a close friend and brotherhood with Ricky Isaacs, now "Chief Ricky," prior to arrest that dated back to their teenage years, as Ricky and a few others were acquitted in a separate trial. The bond the two shared becomes toxic behind a major mishap, and they part ways untrusting of the other. Ricky has his issues in his camp and works at them, while Nightmare does too but manages to overcome, make ties, and elevates in prison with lessons learned along the way. Alliances are formed on all ends, and intentions are exposed, as Nightmare pushes through the dark aggressively towards a spark of light, leaving Ricky waging his personal war on many with no one off limits, only to realize he's doing more harm than good by remaining hell bent on street power instead of opting for a better way. He never sees the bigger picture... it's chess not checkers! He doesn't know how to let go. Loyalty is frail... Trust is no more... Sides are taken... Bodies are dropped... It's all the way on no doubt, as power is sought, but only comes to the ruthless!
