Description:

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. The streets of New York are never quiet—and in the Bronx, the wolves are at the gate. A new power emerges as the Oak Street Goons push down from Yonkers, their ambition and violence forcing Malcolm James to either make allies or face a war he can’t win. At the same time, the Cartel tightens its grip through Nikki, Malcolm’s on-again, off-again lover whose loyalty may be slipping toward Señor Vargas’ vision of controlling the entire city. Into this chaos steps Jody Ann Watson, an undercover federal agent moving through the streets as her alter ego Queenie Glam. Half-Jamaican, half-Dominican, and fluent in both the language of the Cartel and the slang of the blocks, Queenie maneuvers closer to Malcolm while fighting the dangerous pull of her own attraction to him. Meanwhile, Detectives Mike James and Luis “Pretty Lou” Martinez struggle against more than the city’s criminal underworld. With Internal Affairs breathing down their necks and Lou’s affair with a Yankee star’s wife threatening to explode, the line between their duty and their survival has never been thinner. As the Aqueduct Hittas storm into the Bronx under the ruthless MayBac, alliances fracture, betrayals multiply, and the city teeters on the edge of collapse. When Vargas sets his deadliest trap yet, the Bronx erupts in fire and blood, leaving Malcolm, Nikki, Queenie, Mike, Lou, and the Goons all caught in a deadly game. The battle lines are drawn. Loyalties will break. And when the smoke clears, New York will never be the same. The war for the city’s heart has only just begun. Duration - 1h 11m. Author - Milt Johnson.
