Imagine living in a conspiratorial world where you betray your friends and your worst enemy is the only one you trust.
Welcome to Kenny’s world. Kenny grew up on LA’s mean streets, where the cops killed his brother for stealing candy. Red taught Kenny to survive by joining a gang. But when the young pimp and drug dealer ran into trouble, he was forced to work for a cop, and not just any cop. Kenny worked for Bert—the cop responsible for his brother’s death. Bert turned Kenny into a snitch who betrayed those who trusted him.
Caught between the Panthers and the Crips, Kenny was forced to play a dangerous game. It was just a matter of time before he got caught double-dealing. So Kenny was forced to turn to Bert, who sent him to the only place Kenny would be safe—Vietnam.
