Reseña del editor

No one was supposed to get hurt. Young Mack Shannon, of black-Irish descent, was the driver for the two robbers. He was just the driver. He didn't steal the money and he didn't shoot the cop, but when it comes down to the nitty-gritty, it's him the cops are looking for. What Mack doesn't expect is for his affluent uncle and aunt to take him under their wing and train him to be the most formidable force Memphis has ever seen: a disciplined, educated man of wealth, with a fearless passion for success. Will Mack rise to the challenge of becoming greater than he ever imagined, or will he steep into the Memphis underworld of drug lords and hit men? Faced with racist clubbers, a tango dancing cougar with a vicious guard dog, and a Mexican rocket-firing assassin, Mack must climb to power while questioning the meaning of family, love, and loyalty.
