Book Synopsis
After losing their parents as children and moving in with their grandmother Mahaliah; Cheyenne, Tyshon, and Torrance set out to embrace a normal life without their biological parents as best they can. Their grandmother Mahaliah is dependent on a fixed income, and relies on part-time incomes provided by Cheyenne and Tyshon, and unknowingly on Torrance’s street hustle in order to establish a single income. Forty-eight year old Neil, Mahailiah’s youngest of four children also resides in the home, but he can’t keep a job. To add to economic challenges, there rises a capitalist giant that confronts the entire community in the name of gentrification. As strategic grandchildren with only one goal in mind, to survive as a family unit, Cheyenne and Tyshon cleverly responds with a plan that will not only sustain their lifeline, but will also allow them to ascend above the tyrant storm of capitalism. When the going gets tough, and arrives face to face with these grandchildren, they go all out to reserve their grandmother’s right to live comfortably in the house she raised them in.
