Synopsis

Short Stories Where, There Are No rules!! With a diverse group of writers, including bestsellers Shannon Holmes (B-More Careful) and Anthony Whyte (Ghetto Girls), this anthology takes you to the exact moment of a brick being dropped from a rooftop. As you read, you'll have no choice but to watch from below and bear witness to the pain. Ultimately, Concrete Jungle comprises authors from different parts, offering different stories, crafted with a similar place in mind: stories of money, sex, lies, videotapes, drugs, violence, and finding a place to fit in. Above all, these are stories of decisions made, good or bad, in the face of the sheer desperation that comes from trying to survive in this corner of American known as the Concrete Jungle.
