The Legacy - by Kyle S Berkley (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

It's been two years since the events of The Void. Tiffany Gibbons is planning to marry the love of her life, Hakeem Andrews. But the Ridgely Square community isn't faring as well. Since the events that occurred two years ago, when Tiffany's aunt Gina and others exposed what was occurring in the underbelly of their community, it has been in the midst of a gang war and major unrest. As the story unfolds, Tiffany has the honor of being interviewed in her restaurant by Anna Cartwright to discuss some of the positive things going on in Ridgely Square as well as its history. In recounting the details of historic and present-day redlining, she stirs up a hornet's nest of unimaginable proportion. By "outing" the gangs, crooked police and dirty politicians that have been left alone to do their dirt with no retribution, she is stepping into territory that has not been tampered with in ages. The gangs turn on each other, Tiffany is seen as a snitch and she and her family become targets bringing death and destruction to her door. As if that wasn't enough, there's a vigilante killer on the loose! So when murder and chaos erupt literally in Tiffany's own back yard, who can she turn to, to right all the wrongs in her life and to help those in her community?

Review Quotes

As the third book in the series, Legacy continues important conversations about concepts such as gentrification, corruption, and gang violence within a narrative that keeps your attention. Tiffany Gibbons is a mother, entrepreneur, and pillar in her community. Most of all, she is a character you can root for as she deals with past trauma, an active serial killer and harassment from Titan Industries and the Alphas.

Void is a great build-up and then Legacy explodes. The twist and the turns and the roller coaster of emotions is NOT ok, in the best way. This would be one hell of a Netflix series in my opinion.
