Reseña del libro "Baptiste (en Inglés)"
Isaac Baptiste was born into power. He just refuses to spend his life living underneath somebody else's. At twenty-three, Isaac has money, a respected family name, and access most men would kill for. His father built Baptiste Development into a legitimate empire. His mother, Nadine, controls a far different operation with the same discipline she brings to everything else. His twin sister Camille is already being prepared to inherit the family business. Isaac wants something that belongs to him. While his parents build companies, properties, and systems designed to last, Isaac has created an operation of his own with Caleb, Khalil, and the men loyal to him. But when ten kilos disappear, one of his men is murdered, and another barely survives, the robbery exposes something far bigger than missing product. A name begins moving through Miami: the Regime. Led by people Isaac has never dealt with and represented on the street by a newcomer called Heavy, the Regime isn't simply taking territory. They know Isaac's customers, his prices, his weaknesses, and exactly when to move. While Isaac hunts the men responsible, he realizes somebody has been studying his operation long before he knew there was a war.The deeper Isaac pushes, the more the conflict begins touching the one place he never wanted involved: his family. His mother sees threats as systems to dismantle. Camille sees numbers Isaac would rather ignore. His father keeps trying to teach him that making money and owning something are not the same thing. And Tia, the woman closest to him, forces Isaac to confront another truth: protection means very little when the person being protected has no control over the door.Determined to stop existing inside everybody else's power, Isaac begins building something legitimate of his own. Property. Tenants. Debt. Payroll. Keys with his name behind them. For the first time, every decision-and every consequence-belongs to him. But ownership creates a new kind of vulnerability. As the Regime closes in and hidden routes, divided loyalties, and powerful organizations emerge from behind Miami's legitimate businesses, Isaac discovers that the fight was never only about product. Someone wants access to the Baptiste dynasty, and the people closest to the family may know far more than they have admitted. Now Isaac has to decide what kind of man he intends to become: another heir protected by his last name, or an owner capable of defending something that is finally his. BAPTISTE is a gritty, character-driven crime drama about family power, inheritance, loyalty, ownership, betrayal, and the difference between having access and having control. Set inside the interconnected NOVA Universe, it follows a young heir determined to build his own legacy-even if claiming it puts him directly in the path of the Regime. Power can open the gate. Ownership decides who controls it.
