A Bay Area urban crime thriller
Revenge doesn't start with guns. It starts with learning the game.
The She Was a Friend of Mine series is getting a makeover, inside and out. Stay tuned...
Looking for answers gets Scheyenne “Shi” Iverson noticed—by the wrong people, and by the one person who understands exactly what she’s becoming.
When Shi crosses paths with T-Money, a powerful Bay Area kingpin who sees past her anger and into her potential, she’s pulled into a world that runs quieter and deeper than street-level chaos. He doesn’t recruit her. He watches her. Studies her. Tests her patience.
Under T-Money’s watch, Shi begins to learn how real power actually moves. Not reckless violence—but control. She’s taught how money flows, how loyalty is built, and how survival depends on knowing when to listen instead of react. Every lesson reshapes her, sharpening her instincts while hardening her resolve.
But mentorship comes with strings.
As Shi grows stronger and smarter, she starts to realize she’s being shaped—positioned for something she doesn’t fully understand yet. Everyone around her has an angle. Every relationship feels conditional. Even Vicky, the one person she trusted without question, begins to feel… complicated.
Disloyal is the moment Shi stops being a victim and starts becoming something dangerous.
Set deep within the Bay Area drug underworld, She Was a Friend of Mine 2: Disloyal is an urban fiction crime thriller about power, manipulation, and the unseen cost of revenge—where every lesson learned pulls Shi further from who she was, and closer to who she may not survive becoming.
This novel is the second installment in the She Was a Friend of Mine Bay Area crime saga, continuing Scheyenne “Shi” Iverson’s descent into power, loyalty, and consequence.
