Streets (Hardcover)

STREETS If you dare to cross over, can you ever come back? 1957 Seventeen-year-old Frankie Moreno's life is a mess. Raised on the streets, his father dead, his mother just a memory. His sister's boyfriend, a drug dealing pimp, complicates Frankie's life. Being war lord for a street gang, the Regents, gives Frankie a sense of belonging-a family. But that all disappears when his girl moves away and his best friend, Lennie, Regent president, threatens to disband the gang, to quit. Their conflict explodes and Frankie runs-straight to the rival gang. Then it all comes apart.
