The Last Score

By T. K Legend

THE LAST SCORE

They survived the war. Nobody prepared them for peace.

After six years as U.S. Army infantrymen, Hakeem Brooks, Dequan Ellis, and Rain Carter come home with one promise: build honest lives.

Atlanta is the fresh start. Hakeem studies philosophy at Morehouse. Dequan studies criminal justice at Clark Atlanta. Rain, medically discharged, enrolls at Spelman to study theater and reinvent herself.

But college doesn't erase reality. Delayed benefits. Mounting bills. A future that costs more than they can afford.

Then one small favor for Hakeem's uncle opens a door into Atlanta's underworld, and the three veterans convince themselves they've found the perfect crime.

They won't sell drugs. They'll rob the people who do.

Disciplined by military training and sharpened by the very subjects they study, they become something no one sees coming: a robbery crew that plans every job like a combat operation, and justifies every job in the classroom the next morning.

One score becomes two. Two become confidence. Confidence becomes one last job. Four million dollars, and then they're out for good.

Except the house they just robbed doesn't belong to a cartel. It belongs to something with no name, no paperwork, and no intention of letting them walk away.

Now every rule they lived by is gone, and the people hunting them are the same ones who trained them.

*The Last Score* is a philosophical crime thriller about loyalty, morality, and the cost of carrying war home, for readers who like their suspense intelligent and their heists that turn out to be something far more dangerous. The greatest score may only be the beginning.
