Johnny Alvarez never planned to lead anyone—he just wanted to survive.

"Street" is a powerfully written drama that follows Johnny Alvarez as he negotiates a life of crime, drug addiction, and social disturbance. Metcalfe's brilliantly orchestrated tale has a memorable and enlightening storyline that is packed with riveting drama and raw emotion...stark and pertinent observations of the mean streets of 70s New York pack a mighty punch.”

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING...

ABOUT  BOOK 1

Hands down, one of the most enjoyable books I’ve read in a long time. It is funny, sharp, and touching. I couldn’t put it down. I stayed up until 1:00 in the morning to finish it, then had to pour myself a whiskey to come down from the high. 

— Georgios Vlachojannis

The dark humor and the serious add up to a gripping journey that pulls you in and doesn't let go until the last page. 

I now must await the publication of the second novel in this trilogy, to find out what happens to these new 'friends'... !

— Dana Crowe

I love how nuanced STREET was. I wasn't being spoon-fed. It also wasn't a political or depressing book with any disguised underlying message. Highly recommend!!!
