Does Daniel Stone have the balls to walk away from Finest Records, the Black music company he helped build? Will he escape the toxic life of being a famed performer, leave his fans, his friends, and most importantly, his marriage and infant son, to save himself and his God-given talent? Tormented by a failing marriage, corrupt contracts, excessive drugs, wealth and infidelities, and the pawn of treacherous management powered by greed and profit, celebrity Stone wrestles with maintaining his sense of self as his career skyrockets.This best-selling novel is as relevant today as when it first climbed the charts 50 years ago. Jesmer crafts a highly charged sexual, racially tense, and gritty novel of the 1960s and '70s in the booming Black music industry. A time when vinyl records ruled, and a song that shot to the top of the charts was hailed “Number One with a bullet!”“An honest, raw, and riveting novel, revealing what it was really like backstage in the music industry.”—Regina Jones, Owner and Editor of Soul Magazine“Think you know everything about the music industry? Take a quick trip over to the dark side, where you, as a reader, know you don’t have to stay. Now think about your musical heroes, whomever they may be, who can’t escape from that dark side. Number One with a Bullet will take you there.”—Bob Davis, Co-founder, www.soul-patrol.com
