Bad Dogs

Bad Dogs: The Complete Story is a raw, unflinching novel inspired by true events, chronicling one Black cadet’s four-year journey through violent hazing, racial hostility, betrayal, and the dangerous illusion of belonging.

Jon Quest entered a prestigious Southern military college with pride and purpose—but quickly learned the institution wasn’t built to honor who he was.

As Jon fights to hold on to his identity inside a system obsessed with silence and control, each year brings new tests of loyalty, manhood, and truth. But survival, he learns, is its own quiet form of rebellion.

Told with emotional power and brutal honesty, Bad Dogs is a coming-of-age reckoning—for anyone who's ever been expected to shrink in order to belong.
