edit data

A. D. Metcalfe is the award-winning author of the STREET series, explosive crime thrillers that follow Johnny Álvarez and his disparate gang of urban youth as they stake their claim in 1970s era New York City. The fast-paced prose and visceral realism have earned praise for its unflinching look at urban decay, vividly capturing the essence of street life, and the complexities of relationships that form within it.
