NA VE TO THE STREETS is a gritty, fast-moving urban novel about a young Black girl with no guidance besides the self-serving advice she gets from her gangster boyfriend, Ant. A hustler with street cred who lives the street life, Ant is constantly pimping Triangle out like an underage prostitute to his friends. He couldn't care less about who Triangle is sleeping with, just as long as he's making money. But Triangle is blind to the truth. She is in love. One day, as Ant and his posse gang up on Triangle demanding sexual favors, an argument breaks out between Ant and one of his boys. Ant is forced to act in self defense, and suddenly he has a homicide on his hands. Now there's a dead body, blood, and a murder that could change all of their lives. Desperate to hide what happened, Ant stashes the body inside an abandoned van. Days later, he tosses Triangle the keys and lets her drive away without telling her about the body hidden in the back. Triangle and her friend Sincere think they're just going for a joyride through the 'hood. For Triangle, it's another day caught between young love and the dangerous street life surrounding her. Then the police pull them over. An officer notices something wrong in the back of the van, and Triangle is suddenly trapped in a nightmare she never saw coming.
