Born into a man’s world, Dai Break Jones quickly proves that she has what it takes for a woman to succeed. The only child of Hollis Jones, founder of one of Chicago’s largest street organizations, Dai Break is given a hard core education about the streets from an early age. Possessive of an unrelenting drive and fearless ambition, the young tough steadily faces down dangers that would make a grown man cry – and she does it all with the savvy wit and fortitude of a true gangster. Living a successful street life ultimately comes at a price, though, and no matter how tough she proves to be, not even Dai Break may be prepared to pay it in the end...

Rough, raw, and unflinchingly real, More Boy Than Girl is quite the eye-opening read. In his latest standout urban fiction tale, author Tony Lindsay presents you with a no-holds-barred portrait of street life at its grittiest – with none other than a female protagonist at the center of all the action. Readers mustn’t be fooled, though: while Dai Break may be biologically female, she has the brains, brawn – and balls – to go toe-to-toe with the toughest male challenger, often coming out on top. As she scraps, schemes, and hustles her way to the top, her tumultuous life story serves as a brutal reminder that the streets have love for no one – regardless of age or gender – and how the very strength you need to succeed ultimately can often lead to your very downfall. A strongly recommended urban fiction treat.
