Redhawk Publishing Releases Urban Fiction Novel Next American Gangster

Jan. 27, 2008 - PRLog -- In the novel, "A Second To Die," Caesar Slaughter is no ordinary gangster. He is half black, half Comanche and ex-Army Ranger. When his fourteen year old nephew is killed on the orders of Johnny Gates, a local drug lord, Caesar must honor the code of his ancestors and avenge the death.

Johnny Gates has absolute control over the streets of Richmond. To oppose him is to invite a quick and certain death. His drugs and money are his power. His reach is from the back alley crack houses to the upper ranks of the Richmond Police Department.

Caesar knows he is outnumbered and outgunned. He can only depend on the trust and loyalty of his partners and his woman, Rachel, and her bad girlz crew...but sometimes loyalty is not enough, when betrayal pays so much better.
