Sister Souljah, the hip-hop generation's number one author
and most compelling storyteller, delivers a powerful story
about love and loyalty, strength and family. In her
bestselling novel, The Coldest Winter Ever, Sister Souljah
introduced the world to Midnight, a brave but humble
lieutenant to a prominent underworld businessman. Now, in a
highly anticipated follow-up to her million-selling
masterpiece, she brings readers into the life and
dangerously close to the heart of this silent, fearless
young man. Raised in a wealthy, influential, Islamic African family,
Midnight enjoys a life of comfort, confidence, and
protection. Midnight's father provides him with a veil of
privilege and deep, devoted love, but he never hides the
truth about the fierce challenges of the world outside of
his estate. So when Midnight's father's empire is attacked,
he sends Midnight with his mother to the United States. In the streets of Brooklyn, a young Midnight uses his
Islamic mind-set and African intelligence to protect the
ones he loves, build a business, reclaim his wealth and
status, and remain true to his beliefs. Midnight, a handsome and passionate young man, attracts many
women. How he interacts and deals with them is a unique
adventure. This is a highly sensual and tremendous love
story about what a man is willing to risk and give to the
women he loves most. Midnight will remain in your mind and
beat in your heart for a lifetime. Her "raw and true voice" (Publishers Weekly) will both
soothe and arouse you. In a beautifully written and
masterfully woven story, Sister Souljah has given us
Midnight, and solidified her presence as the mother of all
contemporary urban literature.
