HE SWORE HE'D BE A MILLIONAIRE BEFORE TWENTY-ONE. EVEN IF IT KILLED HIM.

Money is God in Rasheen Smith's world. It's the only thing that can save his mother, free his brother, and lift them out of the ghetto that's eating them alive. So when a scheming kingpin turns Rasheen's first kill into a lifelong debt, the young stick-up artist does the only thing he knows how to do—he takes. Spots, stash houses, mansions, lives.

rom the projects of Brooklyn to the prison yards of upstate New York, through betrayal after betrayal, Rasheen claws toward the two things he can't live without: revenge and riches. He'll get his hands on both. But the grip that money has on a man is a grip that never loosens—not for family, not for love, and not for one dime.

aw. Relentless. Unforgettable.
