Bookroo's summary
Sonny Bear, caught between two worlds, leaves the reservation for New York City, seeking freedom. But the streets hold unexpected dangers, including a drug war and a former boxer-turned-cop, Alfred Brooks. As Sonny trains under Brooks, he must confront his inner rage, the 'monster,' and learn to control his destiny. Can he rise above the chaos and become a contender, or will the city's shadows consume him? The stakes are high, and Sonny's future hangs in the balance as he fights for his place in the world.
