Fifteen years ago, Tommy Bossett murdered Shamara Fox's parents in the street and walked away clean. Today he's a rapper-turned-kingpin with a mansion, an army, and a federal agent on payroll.

Shamara has spent her whole life preparing to kill him. With her best friend Fashawn — a Canarsie girl who came home from Iraq changed — she finally finds the only opening

Tommy has ever left: herself.

The plan is to get close enough to end it.

What she doesn't plan for is a man who adores his son, gives quietly to the very streets that raised her, and looks at her like she matters.

Now the closer Shamara gets to her revenge, the less certain she is that she wants it — and the people around her have plans of their own.

A Brooklyn crime saga about vengeance, forgiveness, and the terrible distance between them.
