This novel gives us a rare and exciting glimpse into the organized runnings of the underworld of the Jamaican Diaspora: the drug and gun trades, extortion rackets and their political connections. Susan Adjerlolo, a lovely girl from the country, goes to Kingston city to follow her dreams of becoming a singer. She meets and falls in love with Silver, a gangster turned revolutionary. Love carries Susan through countless dangers and romantic adventures as Jamaica prepares to meet the revolutionary wrath of the oppressed. Legitimate resistance runs wild through the streets and inner cities of Kingston to the fast lanes of New York City and into the suburbs of London. With beautiful Jamaica as the backdrop, and pulsating reggae music as the hearbeat, a generation searches for truth, justice and redemption.
