  • Crime Fiction
  • Thriller

In the late 1990s, three lifelong friends from the Southside seized the streets, building a multimillion-dollar narcotics empire out of raw ambition, discipline, and brotherhood. Marcus brought the vision. Jamal controlled the books. Tyrone enforced their reign with lethal precision. Together, they ruled the city. Yet the higher you climb, the harder the fall. When traditional mob bosses attempt to muscle in on their territory, an explosive turf war ignites. Simultaneously, a relentless federal task force tightens the wiretaps around their enterprise. But the deadliest threat does not come from rival crews or law enforcement—it festers from within. As shadow rivals manipulate old resentments and blood secrets, loyalty dissolves into paranoia and cold-blooded betrayal. With internal deceit turning violent, Marcus is forced to choose between the empire he constructed and the brotherhood that made him. From author Brandon Long comes an electrifying, gritty crime thriller about brotherhood, ruthless power, and the devastating cost of building an illicit dynasty
