SHOOTER

About the Book

“What happens when you realize that life isn’t easy – that when you wake up tomorrow, things may not be the same? Jimmy Lewis is only 17 and has seen the worst the world has to offer. Basketball is his destiny, but the hood – ghetto is his life.” How do you react to that? Let Fate Choose the Unknown: Sling on the corner, get out guns blazing? Or . . . Blow past and shoot off the dribble?”
