in the end he gives him life. When the state sentenced Dollar they never

profound urban novel. Bury your mind in this story as it reveals the true rules
of a hustle as the true rules of love, deception and betrayal unravel. It's not
a love story. It's not a just a street story. Dollar Bill is what it is...the
