a tool, playing her way to the top, away from the life she was born into.
Today, Gwenesha sits pretty on the arm of Ricco, South Beach Don, gunrunner,
and drug supplier, who keeps her covered in the finest things. Avoiding gang
politics, Gwenesha ignores Ricco's hard rule over the streets -- as long as
