Silk 9

Meet Reggie Saunders-a successful businessman living the dream with a fancy sports car, tailored clothes, expensive jewelry, and a penthouse office suite atop one of the largest buildings in suburban Washington, D.C. But for everything he has, there's one important thing he's missing. Was his meteoric rise to the top worth the loneliness that now plagues him? Through his childhood as a poor kid facing neighborhood crime to first romance and the Vietnam War, Silk 9: Everyone Lives a Story explores how a black man can navigate discrimination, subtle racism and the dark side of office politics in his quest to become a successful businessman in white Corporate America-and how achieving the ultimate goal just might have ruined his life.
