Suicide Queens

by Amaleka McCall

Allyson "Ally" Cintron grew up in a family of killers. Her father was the head of the notorious Los Asesinos--a crew of hired hit men who carried out some of the deadliest hits on some of the most powerful players in the game. When the tables unexpectedly turn on the family, Ally is the only one left alive. Reeling from the death of her parents, Ally tries to commit suicide. When she is found clinging to life, the social services system places her at Amityville Juvenile Detention and Psychiatric Center.

At Amityville, Ally meets Bianca and Charlie, who were also locked up for trying to take their own lives. Bound by pain and suffering the abuses of the system, all three girls form a pact and name themselves the Suicide Queens. When Ally tricks a doctor into releasing her, she is out for revenge and returns to the only life she knows--street life. Will her father's old ties help her? Or will she inherit her father's debts to the streets?

Walk with this Suicide Queen and find out if she has what it takes to stay alive in a game so bloody she might wish she were dead.
