THE PLUG

Chicago don't forgive.
It only collects.

The Jungle is a Section 8 maze where cops hesitate and killers don't. One way in. One way out. And for years, Dimitrius "Big Meat" Kershaw ran it all?money, muscle, and silence?out of a neighborhood studio called Meats Beats.

But when a new plug brings fentanyl into the city, the money gets bigger and the bodies stack faster.

Donte "Tey" Lewis just wanted rap money and a way out. Instead, he gets pulled deeper into a war he refuses to touch?until greed, betrayal, and blood force his hand. Junkies start dying. A robbery goes wrong. Brothers fall. And when the truth comes out, the streets learn what happens when a king is really working for the feds.

Now the Jungle is burning, hitmen are moving, and everyone wants the same thing:

The money.
The plug.
And Tey's life.

THE PLUG is a gritty, raw Chicago street novel told through rotating points of view?from killers to addicts to the men who think they're untouchable. There are no heroes. Only survivors.

And even they don't get out clean.
