From the Back Cover:

Fifteen-year-old Blaise lives in the gritty outskirts of Washington, DC, where drugs and violence are the only way to survive. When Blaise is invited to join Core 9, one of the most infamous gangs--promising safety, money, and love--she jumps at the chance.

Now Blaise is finally part of a crew. A family.

But things only get more dangerous when tensions with a rival gang heat up. Trek, the head of Core 9, asks Blaise to be his "lure," the sexy bait he'll use to track down enemy gang members and exact revenge. Her friends tell her it's a death sentence, yet Blaise can't resist the money and unparalleled power. As Trek puts Blaise in increasingly dangerous situations, she begins to see there's more to lose than she ever realized--including Satch, the one person who has the power to get under her skin. With death lurking around every corner, should Blaise continue to follow the only path she's ever known, or cut and run?
