Overview

When a Georgia Avenue parade explodes into a massacre, Michael ""Mike"" Blackwell wakes up to a nightmare he can't remember. The streets he grew up on-full of friends, betrayals, and cheap loyalties-become the only evidence left behind: five dead, one survivor, and a legal system eager for answers. Mike pleads to survive, not to confess; his Alford plea buys time but not peace. Penitentiary Slim by Charles Jo... Thrown from project corners into county lockups and federal tiers, Mike must navigate a new world of iron, hunger, and men who call themselves salvation. Penitentiary Slim-charismatic, brutal, and impossible to read-hovers at the edge of every memory: friend, savior, or the architect of Mike's fall. As inmate politics turn violent and memory fractures into obsession, Mike's struggle becomes a brutal rite of passage from boyhood to a man shaped by the bars that hold him. Penitentiary Slim is a hard-hitting descent into the cost of survival-where loyalty can be lethal, the truth is a currency few can afford, and redemption might demand the ultimate price. Fans of gritty prison fiction and urban crime drama will find a fierce, unforgettable voice in Charles Jordan's bold debut.
