About this ebook
Book Three explodes to reveal what really went down to bring the Lawson - Towns War to the surface. Not only did Humphrey Lawson learn that politics can be a dirty game, but he learned that community organization could clean up the streets and city hall. As he pushed his Pip army to take the streets of his city, Macktown back from those who invaded them, he had to reach down deep inside and face his past; a past that no one dared tell him for fear of who he really was. As a sequel to books one and two, The Lawson - Towns War ends with hard truth, empowered characters, and many more challenges ahead.
