About this audiobook

Roland was always different—the smart one, the one who saw a future beyond the streets of South Central Los Angeles. But ambition can be dangerous where loyalty runs thin and envy festers in silence. When a simple favor for his childhood friends—Tee, Rico, and Marcus—turned into a setup, Roland found himself in handcuffs, framed for a crime he didn’t commit. They stayed quiet. He took the fall. Five years behind bars gave him one thing: clarity.

Now he's back.

No longer the naive kid who once believed in brotherhood, Roland is colder, sharper, and driven by a singular purpose—revenge. One by one, he hunts them down, not with brute force, but with precision. Tee, Rico, Marcus—they thought they buried him with that lie. But Roland’s return isn’t just about payback. It’s about balance. It’s about making sure they feel what he felt—betrayed, trapped, broken.

As the bodies drop and fear ripples through the neighborhood, the streets begin to whisper his name like a ghost story. But Roland isn’t hiding.

He’s watching.

Waiting.

Because in a world where pride is currency and betrayal is survival, payback isn’t just justice—it’s a crown earned in blood.

PAYBACK IS A KING.
