Birth of a Savage

The streets can turn a sweetheart into a savage. Is love, and a lot of gumption, enough to survive?

Sydney was given all the right tools to succeed in life, and she was nourished and blossoming into a kind, loving soul. The rules of life are that what you put in is what you get out—but what we are not told is that it’s a cold world, even if you have a pretty face, a nice smile, and a kind heart.

One day, she was living an ideal life with her mother in Atlanta, GA. But after experiencing a devastating loss, Sydney was uprooted from everything that she knew. Forced to be in the care of her wayward, drug addicted uncle, Sydney found herself in the hood of Tennessee.

After being sold by her pillhead uncle, Sydney escaped into the night. She immediately began stumbling around in the night and found herself in a world that began to claw, pull, and push at her from all directions. Luckily, she met another lost soul in Mario, who was on the run for his life. With Mario’s help, she quickly turned from prey to predator.

What happens to a wholesome teenager when she’s thrown to the wolves, left to survive in a city where she doesn’t have anyone? She becomes a SAVAGE!

Savages aren’t born, they are created. The beast inside takes over the mind, body, and spirit. When it’s all said and done, will Sydney rely on her killer instincts to survive?

As Sydney and Mario navigate their new life, how much danger are they in? How much can they get away with?
