Gunmetal Black

By Daniel Serrano (Mass Market, 2011)

LIVING FOR YOUR DREAM IS HARD.

DYING IS EASY . . .

Tired of the street life, ex-con Eddie Santiago has one simple, strictly legit dream: to head for Miami's glittering shores and start his own salsa record label. But Chicago's mean streets aren't letting him go that easy. Two dirty cops have confiscated Eddie's hard-earned life savings. An old-school thug who helped Eddie now wants much more than simple payback. An irresistibly sexy woman has secrets as scorching as her succulent lips. And Eddie's paranoid old friend Tony needs help eliminating a rival drug dealer . . . and planning a big-money casino heist that's anything but a sure bet. Now Eddie is wanted for murder, under the gun, and running out of time. And with his luck, he'll live just long enough to lose it all . . .

"This book is the truth, the truth about getting out of prison and trying to turn your life around. Your best friends become your biggest problems, and your old enemies do all they can to do you in. Eddie Santiago was between a rock and a hard place, but he managed to make it through. Unpredictable, with non-stop action, this is one of the most satisfying books I've ever read. Daniel wrote about the drugs, the sex and senseless-violence in an honest and new way. Congratulations Daniel Serrano... You earned that buck like a mutha...."
