Denny "the Dent" Forrest is six foot five, three-fifty, and born with a dent in the side of his head that makes everyone he meets think he is just big and stupid. He can lift a truck off a trapped child... or twist a man's head clean off with his bare hands. In these five tales of urban noir, the baddest men on the streets of Newark just won't let Denny and his friends be. He may not know a lot, but he knows right from wrong... and how to make wrong right with his two big hands.

"I fell in love with Denny, scars and all." –Pankhearst Review
