Blow One Down: a Tragedy Marlon Rice

Damon woke up this morning to his normal life, in his normal townhouse next to his normal fiancée. But after a call from his friend Freedom, things begin to unravel until 'normal' is as knotted and as jumbled as tangled yarn. In order to untangle this mess Damon is going to have to settle with his past. That is, before his past settles with him. Blow One Down is a hard-boiled story about a bad day. Damon's uncle Jomo used to tell him that good decisions yield good fruits, and bad decisions yield the fruits of punishment. Damon made one real bad decision five years ago, but he has cut that part of his life away. To him, Brooklyn doesn't exist anymore. He doesn't know it yet, but Freedom's phone call is bringing it all back. By the end of the day, Damon will be forced to reap what he has sown.
