Blacc Topp: Gage, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The Gage family fights tooth and nail to stay together --- and when they're reunited, their enemies don't stand a chance as they navigate the criminal underworld side by side.

Redemption usually begins with the soul's commitment to withstand evil, and it's easier said than done. Who can you trust when you can't trust yourself?

Forced to murder his own father but hailed as a savior by his brothers, Julius Gage has a tough row to hoe. He's been thrust into an adult world that he's ill-prepared for, and all that matters is keeping his family together. With no adults in the picture, the state of Arkansas is all too willing to separate the brothers. Julius has no choice but to steal his younger brothers away from the state and reunite his family. Their only hope is to find their older brother, Otis Gage, in the hopes that he, and he alone, can fix what's been broken.

The Gage brothers travel to the mean streets of Detroit, Michigan, to not only escape the demons of rural Arkansas but also to start anew. None of the brothers is prepared for the dog-eat-dog world of crime, sex, drugs, and mayhem that they are about to encounter. Lost love, hatred, greed, and an utter hunger for the finer things fuel the Gage brothers and, in fact, threaten to tear the already fragile family apart.

A chance encounter with a new friend thrusts them into a business that they're very proficient in, but that could unravel all their hopes and dreams. Can they weather a storm that's been brewing for years, or will the love of money destroy a legacy that Julius Gage is fighting tooth and nail to establish? Their journey unmasks an abusive past, the misuse of power, and the disintegration of an American family.

The only question that has everyone puzzled is: Do the Gages kill for the pleasure, or is it all for the money?
