When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. When life put Marques IQ Golden in a coma, he awoke tougher and more determined than ever. He may not have had a penny to his name, and his academic career was seemingly ruined, but he had his friends, his intellectual abilities and his streets smarts. That was enough to create a street empire full of power and riches. But what goes up, must come down. And when life gave Q and his CND crew, a business crippling drought; Q came up with an idea. Why sell drugs when you can make them? And not just any drug? The PERFECT drug. And thus volume 2 begins as Spring blooms in 1999 and Q gambles on an idea as ambitious as any he's ever had. Flying higher and closer to the sun, the stakes continue to increase in a world where what goes up, must come down and all that glitters is not gold.
