The year is 1968. Eugene (Tree) Hairston, an eighteen year old from the ghetto in Portsmouth VA, joins the service to get away from his abusive family. Serving in Vietnam, Hairston runs headlong into blatant racial discrimination and angers his superiors by reporting it. A sergeant, who loses a promotion because of the report, has Hairston bound and beaten, takes him up in a helicopter, and shoves him out into Viet Cong territory, to his probable death. Miraculously, Hairston is rescued three days later is given the option to leave the service.

At home, his untreated Post Traumatic Stress Disorder completely overtakes his life; the only way he is able to cope is by using drugs and alcohol. Unable to support his family or his habit, he turns to criminal activity and eventually becomes a successful drug dealer. His many attempts to get clean and sober fail; eventually he serves three prison sentences: for burglary, armed robbery, and drug dealing.

In an effort to change his life, Hairston moves to Tampa, Florida, where he ends up living on the streets for eight long years. This book follows him through his desperate addiction to the moment his life changed.

Gorgeous summer glow anytime
Color: Glistening Bronze #03, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The body shimmer is like being kissed by warm summer breeze a glow of star dust. It lights not sticky or tacky. It gloriously luxurious but simple way to step a look.

Cute, Smells like Chemicals
Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Looks great but transfers easily. I liked the shade and how the glitter was visible but not distracting. I wasn’t fond of how it smelled but I covered the scent with my sunscreen and I didn’t notice afterwards. Smells like a chemical like scent but it was worth the value I paid for. Good as a highlighter, to add a touch of glow to the face. You can’t see it under foundation but it’s cute on the cheek bones to give a make up less look on a sunny day. The brush is also good quality.

Quick glow up
Color: Glistening Bronze #03, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is a great bronzing shimmer for a little added glow before walking out the door! It's very lightweight and goes on very smooth with brush. I ended up buying and using a larger kabuki brush to brush on faster but the brush it comes with works ok as well. It's the perfect amount of bronze and shimmer.. not glittery or over the top and doesn't have a smell. Doesn't transfer on clothes but I always let it dry a few minutes before putting on clothes.

Beautiful Shimmer
Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This worked well for a wedding. I thought it would be a little more bronzier but I loved the sparkle. It is my first time using a body shimmer though, so it did what I bought it for and next time just need to self tan prior!
