Durty South Grind
L. E. Newell
- An
- erotically
- intimate
- glance
- into
- the
- lives
- of
- five
- kindred
- spirits
- forever
- linked
- through
- love
- and
- devotion
- as
- they
- travel
- through
- a
- maze
- of
- deceit
- and
- mischief
- from
- the
- upper
- echelon
- to
- the
- underbelly
- of
- Atlanta.From
- the
- sandbox
- to
- the
- grave.
- That’s
- the
- motto
- of
- the
- three
- partners
- for
- life:
- Johnny
- Ivey,
- Johnny
- Dobbs,
- and
- Larry
- Stith.
- Together,
- in
- the
- mean
- red-light
- district
- of
- Atlanta,
- they
- are
- also
- known
- as
- the
- three
- amigos.
- One
- for
- all
- and
- all
- for
- one.Newly
- released
- from
- jail,
- Larry
- “Sparkle”
- Stith
- wants
- to
- lead
- a
- life
- free
- of
- crime
- and
- violence.
- But
- his
- dream
- of
- reform
- is
- cut
- short
- when
- he
- is
- reintroduced
- into
- the
- street
- life
- by
- his
- former
- friends.
- Revengeful
- adversaries
- are
- on
- a
- mission
- to
- take
- over
- his
- friends’
- prostitution,
- drugs,
- and
- gambling
- turfs,
- drawing
- him
- back
- into
- the
- life
- he
- was
- trying
- to
- escape.
- Sparkle’s
- lover,
- Beverly
- Johnson,
- is
- now
- the
- city’s
- police
- chief.
- She
- battles
- her
- own
- personal
- demons
- in
- search
- of
- a
- life
- of
- peace
- while
- secretly
- protecting
- her
- friends
- and
- her
- political
- career.
- With
- the
- backdrop
- of
- Atlanta,
- there’s
- a
- labyrinth
- of
- trickery
- that
- the
- friends
- must
- travel
- in
- order
- to
- keep
- their
- territory,
- their
- sanity,
- and
- even
- their lives.
