“There’s a new player stepping into the street-lit spotlight, and he’s one to watch. . . . Urban libraries have to get Got .”— Library Journal , on D’s debut novel Got (starred review)

It’s less than six months after the events of D’s first novel, Got , and our nameless narrator has vanished off the Brooklyn grid, only to end up in Atlanta. Yet trouble is shadowing him, and he is forced to make a life-or-death decision.

Writing since the age of 8, D has never held a legitimate job in his life. His words, however, have appeared in VIBE and other urban publications. An Atlanta native, he currently lives in an ungentrified neighborhood near you.
