- Synopsis
- Lisa Lennox's debut novel transports us to the heart of the crack era--the South Bronx, New York, 1989. In the late '80s and early '90s, the crack epidemic swept through inner-city communities like the plague. Mothers abandoned their children and took to the street for a hit. Fathers sold everything they owned to get a taste. The crackhead was rampant. Some neighborhoods were never the same. Enter Laci Johnson, a privileged, smart, beautiful teenage girl from across town, who teams up with the South Bronx Bitches--an infamous girl group known for chasing men and money. When the SBB becomes envious of Laci, they devise a plan to destroy her life. Finding love in the most unexpected of places, Laci turns to a local drug dealer to help save her and heal the wounds of her new addiction.
