    Author

    Pepi McKenzie

    Pepi McKenzie was convicted of first-degree murder in 1992. He has used his hard-knock lessons acquired from jailhouse pimps, lawyers, prisoncrats, and members of street organizations to pen urban mystery thrillers that speak to the ineffectual judicial systems that harbor and coddle corrupt judges, prosecutors, and crooked homicide detectives whose aim is to incarcerate those that live in American ghettos. Pepi McKenzie's mission as a mystery writer is to bring urban mystery to the forefront by introducing the urban voices that are silenced by other mystery writers.
