About this listen

Imaginatively rendered and a gripping debut, a young man’s dance with the criminal underworld lands him in international hot water and left vying for his life in this crime thriller mash-up of American Gangster and The Bourne Identity.

Raphael Waters grew up accustomed to being in a constant state of survival. When he becomes the muscle for known street figure, Rah, he believes his life has taken a turn for the better. That is until a string of unfortunate circumstances leave Rah missing and Raphael grasping for answers in the streets of the concrete jungle—once again. A chance encounter with the intriguing Alex Gatts promises to be the life-changing turnaround he needs.

Alex Gatts is the perfect mixture of beauty and brawn. She rules the nightlife of South Bend with every click of her sky-high stilettos. When she hires Raphael as her bodyguard, an unexpected friendship develops, sparking a lucrative business proposition that could give Alex the edge she desires.

Raphael lets his guard down and breaks his cardinal rule: Never trust a woman. Together they embark on a series of real estate deals that solidifies their standing amongst the country’s elite and most powerful syndicate. When an international business deal of a lifetime goes awry, Raphael is left holding the bag in enemy territory.

“This story hooked me from the very first page . . . all the twists and turns you need in a suspense story, including a romance you never expected to happen! I highly recommend it for fans of crime thrillers. You won’t be disappointed.” —Shakir Rashaan, bestselling author of Neverwraith

Unique & Great Story!!!

The story of Raphael and Alex was explosive. There’s truly no book I’ve read that’s quite like it. The authors masterfully weaved the humble urban beginnings of both characters to their rise and power and downfall into criminal syndicate. Frank Lucas meets Jason Bourne was the perfect comparison! Alex was a boss but she beyond repair. Raphael became the hope of every young black male trying to succeed. The bond he built with Essie and Kaion was beautiful, and I can’t wait to see the aftermath with the CIA and Abaku! The only negative is the narrator. His voice is too theatrical, and did not serve this body of work. I hope another fitting narrator(s) is chosen should there be a part 2 in audio.
