About this listen

Rory was a streetwise kid from one of the city’s toughest housing projects. Ricky, the pretty boy athlete, escaped the mean streets of north St. Louis to become a mentor and coach. Joseph was born to teenage parents, as was his younger half-brother, Little T. Neither would live past 19. Brenda, the no-nonsense mother-in-the-law, played the role of confidant and critic until breast cancer ravaged her body and spread to her brain. All died within a span of 19 months. Four of them in the same year, two violently. Two died within days of each other - twice. This is the story of how they were all connected. Be inspired by five new bold, powerful, and reflective personal essays on reconciliation and redemption from the award-winning author of The Pride of Park Avenue and James Cool.
