QUOTABLES:
"One of my pet peeves is when professionals reach out to me and be like, I don't even drink coffee. Y'all, I don't care if you are going to drink tea or get a bottle of water. You can sit there thirsty for all I care. The goal is to get on someone's calendar and get time to meet with them."

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship.
