The Capital of California: Incase They Trip in Heaven My Enemies in Hell (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780997830507)

Who is Raymond Buchannon?

As a lonely runaway on the streets of Sacramento, young Victor Raymond receives a gritty crash course in the street sense he needs to survive. He learns to focus on money-getting it and keeping it. Life is tumultuous as he makes friends and enemies, falls in love, and gradually develops the hustle to come out on top. He becomes a veritable king of the city, a gangster who stands for the people. Before long he builds a reputation-and rap sheet-that law enforcement can't ignore.

The police are desperate for leads on the city's most wanted criminal, and politicians are putting increasing pressure on the new captain to bring this violent and dangerous man to justice. An arrest is made. But did they catch the right man? The defendant and his alluring rookie attorney create their own plot to avoid the looming capital trial.

In a city like no other, with a lawbreaking hero beyond compare, this thrilling drama reveals how our past makes us who we are. It explores deep into the life of a ruler trying to maintain his throne, while everything around him threatens to fall apart.
