The Carlo Crimson Story

By: Charles Truth

Narrated by: Cary Hite

What unfolds inside this urban literary jewel is a tale of a young boy named Carlo who loses his father right before his eyes to a brutal revenge. Thereafter, Carlo grows up with no remorse in his heart.

At the undeveloped age of 13, he carries out a vengeful act that lands him a term of juvenile-life behind bars. After being released from custody, Carlo claims a ruthless lifestyle in his fight for position. With the help of Waxey, a childhood friend, and Carlo's cousin, June, who has a detrimental weakness, Carlo rises above the law.

Carlo digs deep into his father's past, only to find some disturbing news that adds pieces to his father's puzzled murder. The great betrayal comes when Carlo least expects it and from whom he would've never thought would betray him. That betrayal causes Carlo to make a forbidden decision that may change the course of his life and his position in the streets.

Part 2???

This book was ok. The story could have sounded more to create an excitement for the ultimate situation with the uncle and Carlo. This story really had a lot of potential and the way it ended left me feeling like there should be more to come.
