A heartbreaking and fast-paced story charged with suspense, this stark look at Viper’s Black American experience uses its snappy, provocative narrative voice and endless plot twists to offer up a stunningly original, achingly beautiful listen about one man’s dreams of making it big and finding love in a world that wants to keep him down.
