  • "In het Washington DC van de jaren zeventig worden twee mannen belaagd door een bende misdadigers na een uit de hand gelopen drugsdeal."
  • "L'histoire d'un maquereau dans une Amérique qui fête, en 1976, le bicentenaire de l'Indépendance. Atmosphère de drogue, de soul music, de conflits raciaux. Ce roman vient d'être adapté au cinéma par Puff Daddy, producteur de rap aux Etas-Unis."
  • "King Suckerman is a thriller that weaves the blaxploitation films, the drug deals, the soul music, and the racial tensions that defined the seventies into a story of natural-born killers and two men who risk everything to bring them down. Dimitri Karras and Marcus Clay are old friends whose affection transcends the barriers of race. Clay is a Vietnam vet trying to make a go of his own small business, while Karras is drifting, playing pickup basketball and supporting himself with small-time drug dealing. When Karras takes Clay with him to make a buy from a new supplier, they cross paths with Wilton Cooper - and enter a world where merciless, unpredictable violence is the only certainty. Cooper cuts a swath of bloody mayhem that leads straight to Karras's door, and Karras has the battle of a lifetime to keep his walk on the wild side from destroying his entire world."
  • "When Dimitri Karras meets Wilton Cooper on a routine drug buy, he thinks that he has found an ideal partner, but soon Dimitri finds that entering a partnership with Wilton could ruin the only thing in life he really cares about, his family."@en
