Cry Revenge

When a young Black man sees his brother's dreams shattered, he takes to the streets to start a war. Even if that's exactly what "the system" expects in this bold action-packed urban thriller from Donald Goines, the OG master of urban lit . . .

It's not that Curtis Carson is hating on the Latinos in his backyard dice games. He just happens to roll the dice better. But the Latinos don't see it that way, and when one of their brothers is brutally gunned down in a barroom shoot-out because of Curtis's dealings with the drug dealer Fat George, it's Curtis who ends up with a target on his back and his brother who ends up with a wrecked body far from the hoop dreams he once harbored. If things aren't tragic enough, Curtis is hell-bent on setting things straight. He's on a deadly path of vengeance that will leave the streets running red with Black and Latino blood . . .
