Wrongfully Mine Part 1
CKKE PUBLISHING | CRIME ANTHOLOGY BOOKSTORE * A LEADER IN INDEPENDENT PUBLISHING The Explosive Double Novel, "WRONGFULLY MINE" wrongfully mine-(rawng fuulee min) improper noun. 1. An ill-fated mentality when an individual(s) set out to take ownership of something clearly not belonging to them, by the premeditated use of manipulation, coersion, violence, murder, etc. ....After battling what Federal Agents furiously called a seemingly never-ending investigation entailing years of terror, violent bloodshed and countless heroin overdoses, the tight-knit body of "Burn" and his monstrous crew had finally been taken down. Overnight, the horrified area where the infamous "Little City" housing projects stood, was finally able to breathe. -The breath they took didn't last long. At the closing of the 7-month long Federal trial proceedings which resulted in Burn and several of his loyal henchmen beating out a slew of charges on their Indictments and receiving unbelievably light sentences, the streets they once trampled fell back on pins & needles. The agents were left infuriated. Confronted now with the factor that 8 years had elapsed, authorities were left with no choice but to free the ruthless Drug Dealer they had so much come to despise. They knew that upon release, Burn would set out to regain full control of Little City despite the added influx of police & new hustlers staking claim. Although not his, in Burn's eyes he didn't care. He wanted it all back for himself. ....Welcome to the mentality of "WRONGFULLY MINE" All rights reserved...

I Want What's Mines!
Hassan Campbell, aka Burn, and his crew once reigned supreme in the streets of New Jersey. He ruled "Little City," a notorious housing project with an iron fist until...the feds took him down. But like a cat with nine lives, Burn, after being down eight years, is back! And Burn wants it all. Hustlers new and old, drug dealers new and old can either get down with Burn or lay down in eternal sleep.
Little does Burn know, the feds are more determined than ever to get him once and for all.
In this dangerous game of life and death, who is going to take an L?
Isadore Johnson's newest book, a two-part novel, finds Burn embarking on a strong arm approach to reclaim the streets that were once wrongfully his. "Wrongfully Mine" balances action with story breadth and depth. Now having read three samplings of Isadore's work (Drug Dealer 1 & 2 and short story `The Deceitful; Hunted' in the anthology Menace II Society), I really like that as an writer he refuses to be boxed in writing the same old story that so many others are. Isadore is not afraid to create something new and think outside of the box.
Character development was on point. I liked the Charlene character and the dynamics of her relationship with Born. Born was cocky, arrogant and not the most likeable of characters, yet you wanted to see him win at all cost.
I didn't care for the ending. The novel ends, but the conflict rages on. No doubt, a sequel is in the works.
Like "Drug Dealer," "Wrongfully Mine" reads like a movie. It holds readers captive as its plot and subplots intertwine. It was definitely worth reading and easily recommendable.

Irreplaceable Loss
It's been 8 ½ years since Hassan Campbell aka Burn has been on the streets of East Orange, New Jersey . Now that he's free, the king of drama is about to make up for lost time, lost income and step on quite a few people's toes. To Burn it don't matter if you're mad. Cause he's willing to protect and enforce what's WRONGFULLY his!
Not everyone is happy that Burn has returned to the streets. Add to that an undercover sting operation looking to get Burn and his whole crew hemmed up for life and you have an action-packed, drama filled thriller on your hands.
