    About this audiobook

    Mystery, crime, and grit surrounded his family, often bringing power-hungry enemies right to his doorstep. Never one to back down from any opposition, he often stood victorious. But this new threat is something different and not at all one he is prepared for until an old love comes to save him.

    Elijah Lewis aka "Smoke" has to decide what to do with the gift of knowledge he's received. Does he deliver more pain to the people responsible for trying to take him out, or does he take well-meaning advice and get out of this line of work? For people like him, there were only so many places he could go and the top two were: to jail or to hell.

    Contains mature themes.

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      The narrators did their thing with Smoke! I enjoyed every bit of this book! I read the ebook but listening to it gave me life.
    • 5/5
      Yes, you should read this book. What a great performance
    • 5/5
      If you met Zora then you will start this with a fierce determination to want to dislike Elijah!
      Smoke is at a stage in life ready to "retire" but the streets seem hellbent on giving him a sendoff. Will he get to sit back & relax? Make amends? Or will the streets claim him..
