A Small World (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780984777556)

In Waterbury, Connecticut, Claude Porter is released after serving a fifteen-year prison sentence. He steps back into society with the intention of living a legal life, despite Jerome "Rocks" Watt's attempts to lure him back into his former criminal lifestyle. After becoming gainfully employed, Claude gets fired for falsifying his information on the job application. Growing tired of penning applications in a gridlocked system not designed for ex-convicts, he embarks on a mission, alongside Rocks, to capture the American Dream by any means necessary. In Los Angeles, California, Aaron Banks, a career criminal with a horrific past, strategizes a mass murder to take over the revenue in the streets. With the assistance of his cousin Flex and a few others, the men pull off the hit and came away with big money and drugs. When they catch wind that there may be a potential witness, Aaron and Flex vows to eliminate the witness and anyone who has any knowledge of their horrific crime, including Aaron's suspicion ridden ex-girlfriend Sonya, but he doesn't realize that he, too, along with his people, are being hunted. This is a gritty and unpolished novel that is set in multiple cities. A story of murder, violence, deceit, lust, sex, and betrayal, this fable is based on the dark lives of individuals who rely on animal instinct to get that fast cash.
