Brothas from Anotha Motha

About the Book

Rick and Jason were raised in the ghettos of Oakland, California—Rick being born white with black blood and Jason with black skin and black blood. They were raised together as best friends, inseparable. When a life crisis destroyed the only two people they loved in life, Rick’s mom and Jason’s dad, they relied on the streets of the ghetto to continue to raise them. They became block monsters. They commanded a group of young, hyper, and deadly killers called the Hyphy Boys. They ordered a hit on an OG shot-caller and sparked a war in the streets of Oakland.

Jason and Rick’s fun, lavish lifestyle brought on other big responsibilities. Dealing with the loves of their lives complicated things even more. Rick was known to be the more responsible one of the two. He took a fall and ended up in jail, leaving all the responsibilities of their empire in Jason’s control—the irresponsible one.

But the OG dude who was killed at their order by one of the Hyphy crewmembers had an uncle who loved him released from prison. And Ben-K wasn’t going to let his nephew’s killer get away with murder. He vowed revenge in cold blood.
