In this electrifying novel, New York Times bestselling author and
"an important voice in American literature" (Jada Pinkett Smith) Sister
Souljah returns to the story of her beloved character, Midnight.
Handsome, young, Muslim, and married to two women living in one house
along with his mother, Umma, and sister, Naja: can Midnight manage all
that he has on his plate? He is surrounded by Americans who don't share
or understand his faith or culture, and adults who are offended by his
maturity, intelligence, and his natural ability to make his hard work
turn into real money. He is calm, confident, and cool, Ninja-trained and
powerful, but one moment of rage throws this Brooklyn youth into a dark
world of dirty police, gangs, guns, drugs, prisons, and dangerous
inmates. Everything he ever believed, every dollar he ever earned, and
all of the women he ever loved--including his mother--are at risk.
Will his manhood be taken, broken, or altered? Can he maintain his
faith? Outnumbered, overruled, and deeply envied--how can he possibly
survive? Will the streets convert him? What can he keep? What must he
lose?
