A month before his wedding, prosecutor Rayvon Russell walks into the courthouse at 26th and California to stand beside a frightened witness. By four o’clock the building is locked down, and Rayvon is on his knees in a stairwell with a deputy’s gun at his head.
The man holding it doesn’t want money. He wants a woman.
Outside, his brothers count the minutes the way their father taught them. Their mother is under a federal subpoena she refuses to explain. The house on Calumet Avenue is not as safe as they thought. And the woman the deputy is asking for is the one person the Russells can’t afford to hand over, and can’t afford to keep.
