But when a cop beats him down while walking his pregnant Korean wife-to-be home one night, Ollie becomes a symbol of oppression and the streets threaten to explode These three friends will be tested and tried, will work in solidarity, and, just maybe, betray each other, in this explosive graphic novel--with prose by crime fiction author Gary Phillips and images by acclaimed artist-writer Dale Berry.
