Philadelphia, PA Author Publishes Urban Fiction

By: PR Leap
(PRLeap.com) Backfire: You Reap What You Sow, a new book by Wayne R. Hampton Jr., has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Backfire: You Reap What You Sow is more than a book, it's a mind-blowing story about two brothers confronted with the difficult challenge of commitment, death of dishonesty, unconditional love, romance and a burning desire of hate as they strive to escape a life of endless poverty. While one measures success through breaking the law, the other has a knack for doing the right thing until he finds himself teamed up with his brother's right-hand man Ziggy, who handpicked a group of local thugs who are always dressed to kill, and who will stop at nothing to put their ruthless skills to use. Things grow even more complicated when tangled clues to hunt down a confidential informant turn into something far more dangerous than anyone expected. Terrible misfortune strikes. Innocent victims are gunned down, leaving a racist homicide detective to bring the killers to justice and investigate the urban community that has become battlegrounds for the brothers, who wish there was a greater distance between them and the evil doors they opened to sinful acts that backfire. This body of work brings forth an innovative way of telling a story and will touch the heart and soul of all hood novel lovers.
