Product Description
Jux\ jooks\ 1: to rob an individual by studying their everyday movement.
Cat was always a thinker and a planner. He committed his first jux and murder at the age of fifteen. A short time after, he emigrated from Jamaica to America. After graduating from high school, he completed a tour of duty in the U.S. Army and returned to a poor job market. Working at a supermarket for minimum wage and living with his mother, he felt that the American dream had failed him. In despair, he instinctively committed his first Jux in the States. All the other Jux that followed were done intentionally and with precision. Feeling the need to Jux for higher stakes, he decided to expand his one-man operation by creating a fraternity (team) and inducting members. First was Banit, who in turn recruited Cloud, Ozzi, Prince, and James. With the team completed, they became an efficient juxing machine. All good things must come to an end; inevitably, the cops came, forcing the Frat to cease operations in New York. With the law hot on their trail, the team disbursed. Cat moved to Miami, the South Beach party scene, where he met new people. This in turn provided the team with the opportunity to jux on a larger scale. Politicians, Athletes, Drug Kingpins, and Celebrities all falls victim to the Jux.

About the Author
Born in the most violent area of Jamaica West Indies, Dadz (Dodz) witnessed the murder of his father by military officers. He immigrated to the United States at the age of eight. By the time he was thirteen. Dadz was out and living in his own. In order to survive on the streets of New York, he rolled along with everything illegal that made money. He was what the streets would consider a natural. Stomping through hoods such as Lefrak City Queens, his name became known, respected, and feared. During the glory years of the 80's he got involved in the drug game. From New York to many southern states he traveled in quest of the mighty dollar. When the 90's came rolling in, he switched his game to taking money instead of hustling for it. He found it much easier to get what he wanted by way of the gun. Ultimately, one too many Jux was the cause of his downfall. Arrested and charged with murder, robbery, and assault, Dadz decided to take the weight for everything. This allowed his codefendants to walk free. He took a plea bargain and received a fourteen sentence to state prison, where he is currently residing today. In the mist of all the chaos and prison drama, Dadz has been able to remain focus and productive. While incarcerated, he has discovered writing and grew to love it. Dadz is able capture the essence of the streets because he actually lived it. He is a writer, not a story teller. His goals are to capture an audience that consist of young adults, and adults who normally wouldn't pick up a book and read. He wishes paint pictures in words that is more chilling and gripping in nature than any rap song could. His books are not written to promote violence or crime. It is only for entertainment purposes much as a Quintan Tarantino's movie, with one exception. It is not a movie, at least not yet.
