The Block: City Shadows (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798235643499)

Stone Harris learned early that Brooklyn does not raise boys. It sharpens them into weapons.

After surviving an abusive childhood, juvenile detention, and years fighting to survive the streets, Stone claws his way to the top, building an empire powerful enough to make Brooklyn fear his name. Money comes. Power follows. Loyalty becomes everything.

Until betrayal starts moving through his world.

As rival crews close in, violence spreads across the borough, and detectives tighten their grip, Stone finds himself trapped in a war growing bigger than territory and money. Every move costs blood. Every choice creates enemies. And in the streets, loyalty dies fast.

Then a teenage girl named Nia crashes into his life carrying secrets powerful enough to destroy everything Stone built.

Because Nia is not just another kid trying to survive Brooklyn.

She is his daughter.

Raised by one of Stone's oldest enemies, Nia forces Stone to face buried truths, old ghosts, and betrayals that have been growing in the shadows longer than he realizes.

In Brooklyn, kings rise through fear.

Kings fall through betrayal.

And every shadow eventually comes for what belongs to it.

The Block: City Shadows is a gritty urban crime thriller about power, loyalty, survival, family, and the price of building an empire in streets that never forgive weakness.
