Mark Brandstetter's "LORDS" is a gritty, electrifying tale that snatches you into a whirlwind of loyalty and betrayal.

Manny, fighting to rescue his father, sacrifices everything, while Mary’s heart is a battlefield, torn between love and loyalty. As their world teeters on the brink, Paulie, desperate for revenge, pulls a rogue cop into their chaos, threatening their already fragile existence. Brandstetter's prose hits hard and fast, capturing the raw, reckless spirit of youth. "LORDS" promises a gripping ride through the dark streets of desire and redemption, holding you captive until the very end. Pick it up — but be warned, you won't put it down.
