| Publisher Description: A Gangsta and a Gentleman Synopsis Marcus 'Dec' Anderson is serving a 10 year federal sentence for armed robbery. He only has 2 years left before release. He is a stand-up convict respected by the entire prison. Unbeknownst to the prison staff and inmates is that Dec is engaged in a relationship with a Correctional Officer Keisha Gibson. The two have been secretly getting to know each other for the past year and have fallen in love. Things could not look brighter for Dec and his eventual release. He has the love of a good woman and his soon to be freedom. Another Correctional Officer has been checking Dec out. Her name is Meko. She has been watching Dec moves on the sidelines and has fallen in love with the persona of him. She makes her intentions known in such a seductively forceful way it catches Dec of guard. Before he knows it he is involved with two women and neither knows of the other. Coupled with that Dec and Keisha have been making plans for his release in a fiscal way. They have been conspiring to sell marijuana at the prison through Dec so that he can make a large sum of money before his release. Particularly now that they know Keisha is pregnant. Selling marijuana at the prison brings it's own problems from staff and other convicts. Dec has been using his best friend Gregory 'G' Barrigon to distribute the marijuana, but even he knows nothing of Dec and Keisha. Now that Meko is in the picture Dec sees a way to make even more money. He makes contact with the BGF(Black Guerilla Family) with Meko and conspires with them to distribute heroin at the prison. When the heroin is introduced on the yard it brings its own set of new problems. Paramount of which is the attention of SIS Jangus. Jangus is the Special Investigative Services officer at the prison. His power trumps even the Warden. But he is corrupt. Jangus has been secretly distrubuting cocaine at the prison through the Aryan Brotherhood. The heroine sales is affecting the cocaine sales negatively. Jangus is upset and suspects Dec and G involvement. Dec must evade the prison staff and other convicts of his involvement with Keisha and Meko, he must keep both women from finding about each other before he work things out with his feelings, and he must survive the attacks of various convicts sent by a corrupt SIS officer as he hustles drugs in prison. This is the world of a true gangsta and a gentleman |
