Hood-fiction Stories

Tired of reading about the violence in his community, Xavier Brunswick decides to take matters into his own hands-but trying to change the streets might cost him everything. Along with three childhood friends, he starts Brothers Takin' Over (BTO), a group meant to uplift the neighborhood. But big egos and buried grudges quickly throw the mission off course. At home, things are no better. His father is "passing" for white, a choice Xavier can't forgive, and now his drug-addicted brother Woodrow is back, stirring up chaos. With back-stabbing friends, family dysfunction, and the weight of the world on his shoulders, Xavier's close to the edge. How much can one person take before he snaps?
