A BRAVE NEW WORLD – AN ULTRA VIOLENT NEW WORLD ORDER
Brought up in the violent gangland life since birth brothers Mat and Nic take the reins from their father as his successor and become the gangland bosses of East London.
Mat gets involved in the illegal drug trade after laundering millions of dirty money from Brinks Mat. He becomes Pablo Escobar’s main European cocaine distributor propelling the Hunter gang into the stratosphere of an untouchable crime syndicate.
But all of this comes at the ultimate price. In a world filled with serial killers, Yardies and Ultra-Violent radical feminists, who can you trust?
Set against the backdrop of East London in the 1980s with systemic police corruption, racism and poverty, juxtaposed with beautiful women, decadence and the Docklands Development. Blood Betrayal is a gritty and darkly humorous story and the first in a duology.
