The Trenches in Bloomington, MN

The Trenches is a gripping, high-stakes street novel that dives deep into the cutthroat realm of power, survival, and loyalty. Mano and Bucca, two seasoned gangsters from Chicago's Southside, understand that the only path out of poverty is through domination-no matter what it takes. Fear drives them upward, and violence is their tool of choice. With piercing intellect and instincts as deadly as their fame, they leave a trail of gore to the pinnacle, set on claiming what they feel is rightfully theirs. But in the trenches, all wins are costly, and the more they rise, the deadlier the games. As their domain grows, rivals hide in wait, ready for their turn. The streets watch, the police close in, and loyalty has become a commodity they can ill afford. Deceit will be inevitable, and survival necessitates staying a step ahead-a price that does not matter. Mano and Bucca soon discover that leadership is not so much about dominating as it is about surviving at all costs. Raw, fast-paced, and uncompromising, The Trenches immerses readers in the dark center of Chicago's rough-and-tumble crime world, where ambition leads to danger, loyalty is pushed to the limit, and the difference between success and collapse is paper-thin.
