Chariote Lowe is valedictorian of the class of 1988 at East Technical High School and has a promising future ahead of her. Despite her age, she’s witnessed a lot of harsh realities. Her mother is a drug addict and uses her body as a pawn for her addiction. Chariote has been raised by her grandmother, whom she adores and respects, but just as she’s close to reaching her goal, fate intervenes with the feel of cold steel in her hands. Ace, the local drug dealer with the most clout in the neighborhood, has an attraction to Chariote. Their relationship unveils Chariote’s alter ego whot is cold, callous and unflinching in demeanor as she finds herself assuming the role of murder for hire.
Swing Lowe, Sweet Chariote becomes a mantra in this read as Stella portrays the life of an innocent teen that becomes caught up in a game of danger and death. Editing problems as well as structure proved to be minor distractions. This read addresses immaturity, manipulation, deceit, greed, murder...and would have been a better read with more depth added to character development as well as consistency.
