Trapped in the Cracks

Struggle is the only thing that's guaranteed. But how much struggle would we consider to be obscene?
Working a legitimate job in construction to steer clear of his drug-trafficking past, Nick Bernard makes the daring decision to conspire to commit one last illegal act, one intended to change the trajectory of his life and give his family an immediate opportunity to relocate and start a new life of entrepreneurial independence.

While devising a devious plan for a risky heist, an unexpected and heart-wrenching tragedy sets Nick on a quest to settle a score before moving across the nation to solace and safety.

On the surface, Trapped in the Cracks is the gripping story of Nick Bernard's pledge of vengeance for his brutally battered sister-hospitalized by the ruthless kingpin of one of the city's most notorious organized crime syndicates. Methodically peeling away layers of the characters' entangled lives, the author exposes the contrasting journeys of struggle of several men and women through the gritty criminal underworld. From the complex challenges of their inner-city upbringings to the serendipitous crossings of their corrupt paths, their intertwining tales are laced with desperation, violence, malice, and hope.
