Bleed

Shadows of Redemption (Perilous Life After Noir Exile Series, Book 1)

By: Severen Henderson, Troy Berry

Narrated by: Severen Henderson

Frank Wright wanted out. Out of the game. Out of the bloodshed. Out of Blanco’s shadow.

For fifteen years, he was the quiet storm behind one of the city’s most feared crime lords—a ghost with bloody hands and a reputation that made enemies vanish. But now, all Frank wants is a peaceful life for his daughter, Tianna, and to outrun the sins that haunt him.

But in a world where loyalty has an expiration date and trust gets you killed, walking away isn't an option. When old debts resurface, betrayal cuts deep, and the streets whisper with unfinished business, Frank finds himself pulled back into the underworld he swore to escape.

Navigating a deadly maze of lies, street politics, and survival, Frank must protect his family while battling the man he used to be—and the monster he was trained to become.

Bleed: Shadows of Redemption is a gritty urban thriller packed with sharp dialogue, layered emotion, and a protagonist who walks the tightrope between killer instinct and fatherhood. If you’re a fan of Power, Snowfall, The Wire, or American Gangster, this is the story you’ve been waiting for.
