The third and most explosive installment of the groundbreaking True to the Game trilogy will take you on a marathon race through the mean streets of Philly. Starting off where the second installment's dramatic cliffhanger left us, True III will finally reveal Gena's mysterious stalker and savior, as well as introduce a new killer so vicious, so cunning, so ruthless, he'll have you looking over your shoulder with each turn of the page.
The crooked cops are searching for the money, Gena's family members are now the target for Gena who's hiding from everything and everyone, as the race is on for Gena's survival. Will she manage to keep the money, can she get out of town and make a new life for herself, and will her family survive the maniacal killer that is hell bent on tracking her down? Will Gena stay, True to the Game?

Customer Reviews
Can I give it a ZERO?!?!
This book was not good at all. Boring. Slow. Who were these characters because I did not recognize them from True to the Game? Gena was dumb and clueless. Quadir was Captain Save a H** at all the right times. And the book wasn't even about them. More time was spent on the corrupt cops and Jerrell's deranged twin. Unbelievable. My only question is WHY? WHY was this book published? Just horrible!
Hated It!
The only and I stress the ONLY reason I bothered to read this book was I wanted to see how Quadir being alive was going to play out. WOW! That whole the doctor saved him and fell in love with him storyline was just preposterous. Not only that, but too much time was spent on it. That alone took up close to 100 pages. Then when you thought things just couldn't get any worse, they did. I don't know who these characters were in this book, but they were NOT the Quadir and Gena of book one. Even Quadir's mom did a 360. It was as if everything that happened in book one was null and void here. This book was a waste of time and I wish there was someway I could sue someone and get my time back. This is a clear case of when keeping it real (or when you don't write your own books) goes WRONG!
WHY?
Following her near death experience in the hotel with Jerrell, Gena is whisked away by an unknown savior and nursed back to health. Now awake, Gena is ready to meet the person behind it all...
In the third installment, the "True to the Game" trilogy comes to an end and answers the one question readers want to know - Is Quadir alive? Defined by no substance, no story and no characterization, this novel is like watching paint dry. The few moments of action quickly dissipate. In large, "True to the Game III" focuses on explaining past situations and crooked cops in pain staking, drawn out detail. "True to the Game II" veered off in one direction and III veers in yet another direction, neither being consistent or interesting as the first book. I can't help but play on the title and say this book was not "true to the game." I expect that "True to the Game III" will divide readers into two groups: die hard fans who will hail the book despite all its obvious flaws; and those who want to grab the `author' and say, "ENOUGH ALREADY!" Count me in the second group.
