Dark Paradise

This is a fictional novel based on true events. It is about three youths being raised in the
housing projects of Paul M. Pearson Gardens. While facing their struggles of growing up
in the Ghettos and adapting to the streets of the Virgin Islands, they become a product
of their environment, where crime and violence are a normal part of their everyday lives.
Money, guns, and drugs became their passion. With no positive influences for them to look
up to, they follow and embrace the negativity that comes from the streets. Unfortunately,
it's a revolving cycle in the hood. Getting caught up in it is very easy, but the consequences
that follow are severely hard.
This story is based in the era of the late '80s and '90s during the crack epidemic that
plagued America and the effects it had on the Virgin Islands.
