Touchstone

Newark-NJ, District Attorney Anthony Jacobs is confident of the witnesses and associates he has gathered to testify and vows to bring to justice Bernard James, Jr.-Newark's most notorious gangster. James, also known in the streets as "Dutch", is noted to be the most dangerous criminal to come up in Jersey in the last 30 years. From his experience and skill as a young car thief, Dutch recognized the opportunity to become the ruler of the streets and seized it. Feared by all, and completely fearless, Dutch and his dangerous clique take over the lucrative heroine trade from the clutches of Nigerian drug lord Ojiugo Kazami. With both the respect and protection of the Italian Mafia, Dutch becomes the most terrifying force on the streets. Now he's on trial for allegedly masterminding what the press has dubbed "THE MONTH OF MURDER", a brutal, thirty day, killing spree where none were spared. With Dutch facing multiple life sentences and a possibly death penalty, the streets are in a mixed uproar of celebration and dread. Will this be the end of Dutch's reign of terror or just the beginning?

Underground from Brixton is the first installment in the Sangster Fi' Manley series, a sexy narrative of danger and discovery that follows Marcella Jeanette Scott as she sets out on her quest to solve the mystery of her father's identity, but ends up stumbling onto secrets surrounding the untimely tragedy of her mother's death instead. To her surprise, simple queries concerning an absent father succeed in unleashing a Rude Bwoy's blood thirsty vendetta; one that he plans to carry out on the blunt force aggression of machetes and guns, posing a direct threat to Marcella as well as Jacob Lamont, the visiting Yankee Bwoy with whom she falls in love. From the ghettos of West Kingston to the posh environs of London's West End unfold a series of events that at first appear random and seemingly unrelated...until an attempt is made on Marcella's life and the puzzle pieces of her difficult childhood begin to slowly align. As Marcella and Jacob join forces on an impossible journey, the question is whether they can keep each other safe...or will Jacob be subjected to the fate prescribed by the Rude Bwoy Lennox Graham, who at one point promises to "see to it before the week is out, that a river of blood flows through Brixton...and the prissy gal from St. Mary Parish will be its source."

Julie Mangos picks up the fast pace and tightly crafted drama delivered in Underground from Brixton with Marcella boarding a Train at Paddington Station en route to Heathrow. Brixton is no longer safe...or anywhere else in London for that matter. Marcella&rsquo;s enemies have made good on their threats and based on the shocking revelations concerning the apparent identity of her father and the uncertainties that come with unearthing them, Marcella is forced to return to her native Jamaica to once and for all confront the ghosts that have inhabited her dreams since she was a child. Will Marcella&rsquo;s questions finally be answered? Will a lifetime of queries and open issues be satisfactorily resolved? Or has she barely scratched the surface of unexpected and even more shocking discoveries? Jamaica is in the midst of another election cycle, Garrison Politics permeates all facets of the Island&rsquo;s commerce and the unholy dynamic between the badmen and their government handlers will ignite an inevitable confrontation that finds Marcella trapped within the conflict. The Rude Bwoys have connections across the Island and Marcella will soon discover that no place is entirely safe. Her London troubles have followed her pon di Yard...and now she will have to employ an entirely different set of rules to solve them if she ever hopes to survive.
