He’s Been Pushed Too Far for Someone Not to Die

Aug. 24, 2009 - PRLog -- Dirty cops, money launderers, street thugs and all the other ingredients of a well-balanced society complete the circle of intrigue. Greed, betrayal, wrath, envy and a perfect ensemble of characters keep the pages turning. This year’s grittiest crime novel “The War for Miami” by Yasheve Miller is a smoking gun that won’t stop firing.

“It goes off like a rocket and when the smoke cleared, I think only like two people were still alive,” said a recent reviewer. “It was great!”

Benito Castillo is no longer peddling cocaine on the street corners or parties frequented by spring breakers thirsty to rebel against their parents. He has matured to a new world, where his enemies are more cunning than a crackhead with a knife, where his friends are more likely to be the ones to steal his money, and his lovers are out for whatever they can get. Welcome to Benito Castillo’s Miami.

As the book jacket says, “There are no family vacations in this Miami.” In this tale of intrigue and deception, there are no heroes other than those the a reader chooses to pledge his allegiance to. There are no right or wrong choices, just survival or death.

“Out of my first three books, this one is the best written. I wasn’t going for shock value like I did with the first two. I wanted to tell a story that I would enjoy,” said Miller.

The novel, “The War for Miami” is an intense thrill ride into Miami’s underworld. This story takes off from the first chapter and increases in intensity, fueled by greed, betrayal and wrath. The richness of the cleverly woven storylines keeps readers intrigued until the very end and leaves them gasping for a sequel.

“This book was like watching an ensemble cast in a movie. Great characters with interwoven storylines,” quoted a recent review.
