All of the Ingredients for a Great Crime Thriller
Revenge, power, money, drugs, hate, sex...'I'm Living But I'm Not Alive' has an amazing range of drama that will keep you wanting more.
The story is about how Dean (who took his brother's name, Daman, after he was murder) becomes the big drug lord of Chicago and how he uses his power to influence the Chicago judicial system to not get caught. There are many back and side stories throughout that build on characters to build an intense story.
Two main characters, Dean and Melvin, are both trying to get revenge and justice for their murdered brothers. Dean's brother was murdered by the Saint Louis Drug Lord and Melvin watched Dean (aka Daman) kill his brother who used to be Daman's West Side Broker. When people betray Daman, you don't want to be on the wrong side of his graces. When he has to be, he's a creative killer with six million ways to kill and has a trademark of smoking a cigar after the job is done.
Daman also has a best friend Cruz (his brother from another mother) with whom he trusts more than anyone. Cruz doesn't break the law and gives Daman advice and helps keep his sanity, but Cruz doesn't know about Daman and his powerful kingdom of drugs.
Before his death, Melvin's brother, Sean, told him that he has to call a number if he was ever murdered and that they will take care of everything. Melvin called the number and an old arch enemy of Daman's (who was almost killed by Daman early in his career of crime) starts infiltrating Daman's organization.
Daman's girl on the side, Jane, gets kidnapped and Daman is forced to pay a healthy ransom for her return. But Daman suspects Jane may be in on the damaging scheme.
sets up the perfect ending for a great sequel to this brilliant story. Can't wait to see how everything goes in the second book!
