Go on a roller coaster ride with Tank, a man who battled a tortured past to become a “made man,” determined to win no matter what he must do, or who he must hurt in the process. From the day he was born, Martaveous “Tank” Young had to fight for what was his. No parents, no family, mentally and physically abused throughout his childhood: the challenges he endured only made him stronger, and soon, the man who grew up with nothing had it all. Now, Tank is the man running the streets and the city, both legal and illegal. His money is long, his patience is short, and his reach is far. Finally, at the pinnacle of the game, he’s decided that the time has come to leave the streets alone and retire, enjoying the life of luxury he’s worked hard to achieve. But when vengeance rears its ugly head and Tank is the target, it almost costs him everything, including his life.

Growing up on the rough streets of Newark, New Jersey, Rameck, George,and Sampson could easily have followed their childhood friends into drug dealing, gangs, and prison. But when a presentation at their school made the three boys aware of the opportunities available to them in the medical and dental professions, they made a pact among themselves that they would become doctors. It took a lot of determination—and a lot of support from one another—but despite all the hardships along the way, the three succeeded. Retold with the help of an award-winning author, this younger adaptation of the adult hit novel The Pact is a hard-hitting, powerful, and inspirational book that will speak to young readers everywhere.
