On the bustling streets of Prohibition-era New York, a unique character named Jersey Leo emerges. Dubbed "Snowball" due to his albinism, he works as a bartender at a mob-run speakeasy, navigating the treacherous underworld of the era. Despite being abandoned by his White mother and facing discrimination from his Black father, a former boxing champion, Jersey is about to uncover a dark secret that has been haunting him his entire life.

Conned into purchasing counterfeit moonshine, or "sugar pop moon," with his boss's money, Jersey finds himself on a perilous mission to track down the bootlegger who betrayed him. The clues lead him to Philadelphia, where his attempt to expose the cheat almost costs him his life. With a price on his head, Jersey turns to his father, the only person he can trust. As they delve into the origins of the mysterious sugar pop moon, stunning revelations about Jersey's past emerge, shaping his future in unexpected ways.

With its engaging plot, memorable characters, and atmospheric prose, "Sugar Pop Moon" is sure to appeal to fans of Mickey Spillane, Raymond Chandler, and other edgy crime series. Prepare to be transported back to the Prohibition era and immersed in a world of danger, deception, and unexpected revelations.
