Donald Goines, the originator of urban lit, never lets up with this raw portrayal of one man’s fight to rid the streets of drugs and crooked cops . . .
If you want to rule the streets, you can’t get bum rushed—a stone-cold fact Kenyatta’s learned through brutal firsthand experience. He’s got the guns and the soldiers, a street-smart army raised on desperation and injustice and ready to fight the power by any means necessary. But the cops have located Kenyatta’s hideout—and they’re coming in armed to the teeth. Kenyatta is not giving up without a fight. The time is now: man up, go to war, put your life on the line. Tsk.
