In a rough and tumble neighborhood on the streets of Philly, where menace and true ruthlessness counts for everything, a group of men from a vicious and impoverished part of this world has taken over the streets. It would not have been possible without the man, the myth, and the legend: MONSTER...Monster, the leader of a vast criminal organization, 7th Street, has attained money, power, respect, and fame. Nothing has challenged his or his group's rule in nearly forever. And nothing CAN challenge it. And then it and someone does. In a hail of gunfire, fraud, deception, and blood, Monster tries so desperately to hold on to control of what he has established before it can be wrenched from his hands by betrayal, law enforcement, and rival cliques all vying for his power, his seat, his wealth, and his life.Monster is the last of a dying breed. A dinosaur in the streets. Large, carnivorous, and moral. No one wants to cross him for fear of his vengeance, but where money is involved, where greed lives; there will also be those who will forego the risks and take them head-on as they try with everything they have to defeat the odds. Against all odds, Monster has paved the way. And against all odds, someone will try to take it all away from him. One man's success is another man's failure. One man's friend - is another's Monster.
