Among the unbeautiful, endless misery, isolation, and desolation that enslaves Chicago’s inner city. Buried in the gripping cloak of grays and browns crying from abandoned flats, bungalows, and apartment buildings – there’s a beauty there somehow. Her name is Brenda and she dwells in the cloak of grays and browns, surviving the insurmountable odds placed before her. Living under the oppressive tyranny of her sex trafficker-father, young Brenda is forced to give her nubile body to men. However, one uneventful, tragic night for the young girl will throw her life into further shambles. Accused of killing her john, Brenda struggles to prove her innocence in a court system that seems hell-bent on just throwing young, black bodies behind bars. Nonetheless, with the support her peers on the inside, Brenda develops the courage and faith to fight for her innocence and hopefully free herself from possible life imprisonment for a crime she knows she didn’t do. In this urban drama, Quan Millz explores the intersection of child sex trafficking, politics, racism and the incessant injustices that many young Black people face trying to navigate America's corrupt criminal justice system. ***Bonus Book Included!***
