Edward, Rob, Smoky, Shirley, Rick, and Nancy, are just a few who become entangled in the crack web. Nancy suffers the most, the direct result of her drug use. During an invasion of the crack house she lived in, she is tortured beyond imagination, with consequences too terrible to think of. The common thread connecting these people, Big-D, a mid-level drug kingpin, supplier and owner of several dope houses, fares no better. He faces a punishment for his activities that even he didn't imagine. His two companions, and bi-sexual lovers, Candy and Shirley, somehow, find a way to escape immediate destruction -- others are not so lucky. While fictionalized and the names changed, some of the incidents in these stories actually happened. This novel will give you an insightful look into the crack epidemic in Detroit. Up close and personal, the not well known lives of the distributor and user will be exposed. Some might recoil from the tragic horror of how sex is traded for drugs. Others might heed the warning to stay away from crack, but all will receive a good dose of reality. Get the boxed set and save the cost of one of the books from the series and be prepared to learn what it's like in the drug culture.
