'Ties to the Streets' is a story loosely based on the life of its author, Omar Beasley. It gives true insight into the world of a wholesale drug dealer living in the 'fast lane', and the affects it has on his life. Main character, Cedric Carter, had just returned home from serving time in Federal prison, and just a short time later he was back in the game living that fast life and getting that fast money. But it all came with a price to pay, and this book will show you how that life began to separate his family, how friendships that once seemed unbreakable suddenly fell into a sewer of rats and betrayal. And most importantly, how that life affects himself as a man in the game. The blood, sweat, and tears trying to make it to the top, but the addiction to the lifestyle prevents him from ever getting there before it's too late.....
