FROM THE WORLD'S MOST PROVOCATIVE WRITER, MD REVO
The Sins in Kingston is a ferocious short story about Jeton Weus and his "strange" business relationship with a barbarous Jamaican woman, her name is Bertena Moncriefe.
Bertena is trying to use her "influence" to merge a "relationship" between Jeton and the infamous Christopher Coke. But "something" weird happens that may threaten the unity of everyone involved. Including, the innocent.
AN OFFICIAL EXCERPT:
Bertena tapped him on the shoulder and moved closer. “If you buy from me, I will introduce you to Dudus.”
Jeton opened his eyes, slowly. “Christopher Coke? Leader of the Shower Posse?”
“Yes. So you’ve heard of him?”
“Of course. My uncle knew his father, Jim Brown. Jim started the Shower Posse.”
“I have a question for you. Do you know why they call it the Shower Posse?”
“No. But you should tell me.”
Bertena took the joint out of his fingers. “Well…there are two theories.”
“Two?”
“The first theory is…they get the name because they shower their political supporters with gifts. Like trips, cars, etc.”
“What’s the other theory?”
Bertena inhaled the cannabis smoke. “The other theory is the gang showers their enemies with bullets.” She watched a smirk come across his handsome face. “When did you and Jim become friends?”
“I wouldn’t technically say WE are friends. My uncle is the one who knew him. They met in the ‘80’s when Edward Seaga was about to be elected Prime Minister.”
“Did you ever meet Jim?”
Jeton took the joint from her fingers. “The first time I met Jim personally was a few months after his daughter was murdered.”
Bertena watched the cannabis smoke fade into the air. “So you have no problem traveling to Tivoli Gardens?”
“There shouldn’t be a problem.”
“You know that’s West Kingston?”
“I know.”
“Do you know the history of Tivoli Gardens?”
“I know some. It used to be called Back-o-Wall.”
Bertena was surprised by what he said.
Jeton noticed the unexpected reaction on her gorgeous face. He continued speaking with eloquence. “It was once a stretch of wasteland beside the Kingston harbor. The houses were made of old matchboards and mud. There was no plumbing and no electricity. It was horrendous before your country won its independence from Britain in 1962. Seaga came in and changed the darkness into life and hope.”
Bertena remained quiet and allowed him to speak freely.
Jeton inhaled the cannabis smoke and exhaled slowly. “I also come from a poor community like Tivoli. I respect Dudus. He’s a strong leader.” He placed the rest of the joint into a golden ashtray on the marble table. “Dudus has developed community programs for poor people. And the Jamaican police have to get permission to enter his neighborhood. Now that’s power! I like that.”
Bertena was impressed by his mannerisms and confidence. “What can you offer?”
Jeton picked up his glass of rum and took another sip. “What I can offer him at this time are AMP-69’s.”
“Explain.”
Bertena took a deep breath and looked directly into his stern eyes. She sensed his curiosity, so she spoke softly but sternly. “They are Hungarian-manufactured assault rifles capable of firing rifle grenades. He knows what they are. If I agree to your terms and buy directly from you, then I expect you to honor the agreement with your life. Don’t give me an answer now. Think about it long and hard before you make a decision. You know my reputation and the reputation of my brothers in Albania. Especially when it comes to matters of business and loyalty.”
