My approximately 65,000-word novel is about a full-blown crack addict named Crumb, who is willing to take penitentiary chances for his drug of choice. Crumb was going around Dallas committing crimes to support his habit until the police caught him with some crack. He was sentenced to a prison rehab, but after he was released, he was struggling. Crumb, who was desperate for a better life, committed an armed robbery and made away with $50,000, which he invested in some powder cocaine. He became the drug kingpin of Dallas who got involved with Fat Cat, who is the lady his heart yearned for during his addiction.Before Crumb and Fat Cat got together, she was surviving from paycheck to paycheck taking care of her young daughter, Shantel. Crumb and Fat Cat's brother, Lil Albert, were there for each other throughout the novel and one day Lil Albert rode with Crumb to watch his back while he made a big dope deal. Lil Albert betrayed Crumb and attempted to kill him so he could take the money and dope, but the plan didn't work out the way he intended it to.This novel is also about a group of men who commits a home invasion and robs a big-time dealer of his money and dope. The group of guys started doing their own individual thing in the dope game, but bad luck is on their side.-- Dedrick Jenkins
