Riassunto

Lance and Jeremy think they've found the perfect opportunity...a chance to rob the stash house of Simon Shuller, one of Philadelphia's biggest drug lords. The plan was simple: sneak in through the window, steal the duffle bags full of coke, and make out with a wealthy profit. But their plans were spoiled when one of Shuller's men walks in on them as they enter through the bathroom window.

As the robbery spirals out of control, Nard panics. He shoots and kills Jeremy and the drug lord's henchman. As he makes his exit, he gets spotted by a few neighbours. Not wanting to kill anyone else, he makes a mad dash for the streets. What he needs now is a plausible alibi. If he doesn't come up with one fast, it could mean life in prison, or death on the streets.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

"Fast-paced and exciting, Alibi is an action-filled story about the desperate life of one urban girl and the consequences of trying to break away. Woods' following will snap this up, but it can find a wider audience with thriller readers who like George Pelecanos' The Turnaround and with fans of the urban crime drama The Wire. (Booklist)

Descrizione del libro:
