This isn't an audiobook. It's a movie without visuals.
Every character voiced separately. Full sound design — gunfire, engines, rain, rooms that sound like rooms. Scored and mixed like a feature film. Put the headphones on and you are inside the abandoned food-processing plant with twenty-five million dollars on the floor and nobody left to trust.
HE SWORE HE'D BE A MILLIONAIRE BEFORE TWENTY-ONE. EVEN IF IT KILLED HIM.
Money is God in Rasheen Smith's world. It's the only thing that can save his mother, free his brother, and lift them out of the ghetto that's eating them alive. So when a scheming kingpin turns Rasheen's first kill into a lifelong debt, the young stick-up artist does the only thing he knows how to do—he takes. Spots, stash houses, mansions, lives.
From the projects of Brooklyn to the prison yards of upstate New York, through betrayal after betrayal, Rasheen claws toward the two things he can't live without: revenge and riches. He'll get his hands on both. But the grip that money has on a man is a grip that never loosens—not for family, not for love, and not for one dime.
Raw. Relentless. Unforgettable.
From the author whose true story became the A24 film Sing Sing.
John "Divine G" Whitfield is a PEN Award–winning novelist, an Oscar-nominated writer and executive producer on Sing Sing, and a founding member of Rehabilitation Through the Arts. Colman Domingo portrayed him on screen in an Academy Award–nominated performance. Money Grip — the first book in this series — appears on screen in the film itself.
These books are not written about the life. They were written from inside it.
WHICH EDITION IS THIS?
