Synopsis
A trail of blood. A mother fighting for her life. A fifteen-year-old boy who knows exactly who did it.
When NYPD Detective Sean Finnerty arrives at a Washington Heights apartment, the scene tells him everything and nothing. Somewhere between the crime and the truth is a boy named Butchie Torres.
Eighteen months earlier, Butchie was just trying to survive his own life. Gifted on the basketball court and wise beyond his years, he is navigating the inner-city streets of Washington Heights in the late 1980s — a Dominican American kid with everything to lose. A father who vanished. A mother waging a quiet war with addiction. A neighborhood where the crack epidemic is swallowing whole blocks whole.
When his mother falls for the wrong man, the mother-son bond Butchie has fought to protect fractures in ways no fifteen-year-old should ever have to understand.
A Life in Days is a gripping, emotionally raw coming-of-age novel rooted in the heart of a Latino community — a family saga about resilience, loyalty, and the cost of survival in a city that never stops testing you. Urban fiction at its most human. Street literature with soul.
For fans of Donald Goines, Omar Tyree, and Junot Díaz.
For anyone who has ever watched someone they love fight to stay above water and refused to stop believing they could.

A Life in Days (Paperback)

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. A Life in Days is the powerful coming-of-age story of Butchie, a gifted young basketball player growing up in the unforgiving streets of New York City. With a mother struggling to stay clean, a father who abandoned them, and a world that seems determined to change faster than he can catch up, Butchie must navigate the blurred lines between survival and success. As he dodges the pitfalls of his environment-drugs, violence, poverty-Butchie finds clarity in moments: a bounce pass on the court, a quiet conversation with his mother, a lesson learned from pain. Surrounded by a community of vivid, deeply flawed, but ultimately human characters, Butchie's story unfolds in fragments-some hopeful, some haunting, but all deeply real. A Life in Days is not just a journey-it's a portrait of youth, struggle, and resilience told one day at a time. This item is printed on demand.
