Rats in the Dark
Kenneth Walker has always believed that money is the only thing standing between him and a better life. Growing up in the rough neighborhoods of South Florida, he starts small-running neighborhood craps games from his backyard and building a reputation as a hustler with ambition. But Kenneth dreams bigger than gambling. He wants power, respect, and the kind of money that can change his life forever.
Alongside his childhood friend Aaron, a charismatic but self-destructive drug addict, Kenneth decides to enter the lucrative drug trade. Their hopes rest on securing a partnership with Young Miles, a respected Cuban supplier whose influence stretches across the city. However, Young Miles immediately recognizes Aaron as a liability. Seeing the addiction that controls him, he refuses to do business with Aaron and offers Kenneth a chance to work alone.
Forced to choose between loyalty and opportunity, Kenneth chooses opportunity.
As his drug business flourishes, Kenneth begins building a new life. He falls in love with Selena, a beautiful Cuban woman who offers him stability and a future beyond the streets. For the first time, Kenneth begins to believe he can escape the poverty and violence that have surrounded him his entire life.
But the streets never let go.
