This compelling tale unwinds against the backdrop of Youngstown, Ohio, where the protagonist dreams of someday leaving this backwater of a town behind and starting life anew with his love interest, Cassie. Caught between being the breadwinner of his family and the rampant drug and crime epidemic in Youngstown, MJ's life is about to become even more complicated. After the gruesome murder of his crack-addicted brother, Danny, MJ vows to seek justice on behalf of the Shea family. MJ is forced to confront the city's drug kingpin and other surprising dangers that are lying in wait for him. Can he unravel the truth behind Danny's death and finally reveal the person responsible for it all?
Everyone Dies in Youngstown is an enthralling noir crime story that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. The non-stop action makes it difficult to put this book down, even for a moment.
