‘I shot his hat. Dass all. And – BELIEVE ME – the motherf**ker KNEW what that was about! The problem is, the bullet went through his hat, ricko-shayed off his floor, blew out his big screen TV, and put a hole in the guy next door’s apartment who was home at the time…’
It’s New York and Jackie’s in trouble. An ex-con struggling with addiction, he’s trying to go straight and get back with childhood sweetheart Veronica, but can he trust her? His sponsor, the outwardly pious and clean-living Ralph D. isn’t all he seems and Cousin Julio really doesn’t like him very much. Can Jackie keep it together or is he on a path to self-destruct?
