title: A Life for A Life (Wahida Clark Presents Publishing) (Statement in Literature)
author: Mike Jefferies
description: After spending nearly a decade behind bars, Drako finally had something to smile about. His mentor, Toney Domacio, had taught him the workings of the underworld, and Drako was primed to take advantage. Along with his girlfriend, Diamond, a new home, flashy cars and millions being thrown his way from his longtime friend and Red Rum Records CEO, Wiz, most would be content. But Drako still wasn't satisfied. In his mind, he deserved everything that Wiz had, and more. He was determined to 'play da game raw' and make his millions, by any means necessary. This obsession with wealth culminated into a lucrative white collar scheme. Suddenly, things began to unravel. Wiz, who employed Drako as his Chief of Security, endures media and federal scrutiny in the aftermath of death of a rival rapper. Diamond is becoming more and more nervous about the FEDS catching on to Drako's schemes. And worst of all, Drako courtesy of an unlikely ally, discovers he has traitors in his circle-traitors who threaten to bring him down not only Red Rum, but also everything Drako had worked so hard for. This is a story of love and hate, trust and betrayal, life and death, all revolving around hip-hop, business, federal agents, gangstas, and inmates to bring about a shocking, dramatic conclusion. It is a tribute to those who understand that sometimes, in order for one to survive, another must be buried.It is, for all intents and purpose, "A Life For A Life."
