Book Synopsis
Raw and true to the street, no one portrays the underground like the godfather of urban lit, Donald Goines.
 
Trapped in jail for a petty crime, Prince hatches a scheme from his cell to make it big. Once Ruby, the only woman worthy of his brutal ambition, joins him on the outside, they take down Detroit one hustle at a time. Dealers, pimps, police and politicians—in the blink of an eye the hood is theirs. Now, the only thing certain is the cold hard truth of the streets—because with enemies waiting behind every corner, there’s only one way to stay on top of the world . . .
 
“He lived by the code of the streets and his books vividly recreated the street jungle and its predators.”
—New Jersey Voice
 
“Machiavelli was my tutor, Donald Goines my father figure.”
 —Tupac Shakur
