A Familiar Poison
On a cold winter night in Laurel, Maryland, a city on the outskirts of the nation's capital, a determined mother left her newborn baby on the steps of a church, consumed by a hustle so deep she forgot all about him. That baby, Chevron "Chevy" Whitfield, was raised by the church, first by the pastor and then by a sister from the congregation. But even with their guidance, he soon fell into the streets, a path so many young brothers seeking a way fall into, a place that ain't got no love. Born into a vicious cycle, a familiar poison he could never truly escape.
The streets offered a different kind of sermon, one of survival, loyalty, and the relentless chase for paper. Now a young man, Chevy is in a hustle with his day-one crew, a brotherhood forged in the concrete crucible of the DMV. But in this raw urban thriller, where every move is a gamble, rounds will be fired, and blood will spill on the pavement as a dark fate looms over them all. This story is a wild ride through high-stakes heists, lost love, the chase for dreams, and a desperate escape from the law. As alliances crumble and old friends turn to enemies, betrayal will consume, and death will hit deep. In Jesse Johnson's second book, the shadows of the past never stay buried, and the cost of survival is heavier than he ever imagined.
