In Sinclair's latest Crescent Crew tale, following Blood Ties (2019), Reece and Qwess are closer than brothers, to the extent that Reece spent five years in jail to protect Qwess. During that time, Qwess continued building his rap empire while Reece had his gangster underlings running drugs and the Crescent Crew. Now that Reece is back on the outside, things are going as smoothly as he hoped. He feels pulled between different versions of himself?King Reece, Rapper Reece, and just Reece?he doesn't know which person he should become. Will Reece allow his dark, ambitious, vengeful side to lead, or will he find happiness with his son? Sinclair has created another heart-pounding story line, set to the unrelenting beat of life in the urban South. Each suspenseful twist in this deeply engrossing story will keep readers on the edge of their seats clamoring for more. Fans of Kwame Teague and Jihad will be sure to enjoy Sinclair's latest.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2019, American Library Association.)
