5th and 5th Stray

A horrifying past has left Izzy homeless and alone in the roughest neighborhood in the city, so he runs with the dangerous 5th and 5th street gang for revenge and protection on the dirty streets. He serves his gang with pride until his survival skills are put to the utmost when law enforcement and his gang set him up for murder and brand him a traitor, a mark that means death to the wearer if caught by any gang. Having nowhere in the city to hide, Izzy flees to the seaside and finds safety and solace in an affluent community where he finds what his heart was looking for all this time, helping him to learn new rules to blend in and hide from discovery.
But gangs don’t let traitors go that easily and come for him, risking not only Izzy’s life but the lives of everyone he’s come to know. To defend his newfound home, Izzy must embrace his passed skills without betraying his new life before it kills him and those he loves.
