Sent to prison as a teenager for selling drugs, he survives by learning control instead of violence-guided by an aging ex-boxer who teaches him discipline when chaos is the easier choice.
When he's released, that lesson carries him into the ring, through a hard-earned boxing career that takes him from obscurity to championships, and finally to a moment every fighter must face: knowing when to stop.
Last Bell is a powerful, quiet novel about redemption, restraint, and legacy-about how true strength isn't found in the fight itself, but in knowing when to step away, whole.
