โฆ Synopsis
A searing novel of ambition, betrayal and murder - the master of street fiction is back. She's beautiful, self-assured: coveted by men, feared by women, beholden to no-one. She's one of the deadliest women ever to grace the streets of Harlem - her name is Eve. The only family Eve Panelli has ever known is the infamous Twenty-Gang. Orphaned as a small child, Eve quickly found her own hustle. By the age of 17, she had already spent two years of her life in prison. Now, at 18, she's back with the Twenty-Gang - and it's not long before she is up to one of her old tricks. Strong-arm robbery. She's also got her eye on Felon, the 'hood's up-and-coming street king. Eve's life takes a serious turn when the DeNardis, one of the most powerful street families and the city's largest supplier of narcotics, try to tighten their hold on Harlem. And when Eve's best friend is murdered in the crossfire, she goes out for revenge - starting all the way up at the top.
