I really enjoyed this book Tra Verdejo really did a good job.From the first page to the last this book really kept my attention and once I started there was no way I stopping until I was finished.I can't wait until April 26 to go and get part 2.





Go in side the life of Donald lucky Gibson as he tell the truth about a young innocent black man getting killed by white officers in his police department.Lucky gives the story raw and uncut and leaves no details out including what he has done in the police force.If he's going down he is making sure everybody goes down including city officials.This story will really have you wondering is corruption going on in your city????

it was a great book, it explains how crocked cops are and how they get away with a lot.

Quite excellent. Only problem I had was some events were given too much detail other than that planning on reading vol. 2.

I really wish it didn't end that way. Wow! At least Lucky escaped I'm so happy. But that Diamond character is truly something else... this book needs a part 2. Great job Mr. Verdejo!
