Since they arrived from Sri Lanka as Tamil refugees fleeing the civil war, one thing's become blindingly clear--the American Dream is bullshit. The system is rigged, so sometimes you have to cheat to win.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Their family lives hand-to-mouth, always working for their next meal, until her aunt Anjali brings home her new fling, Mark. A day trader who promises them the world, Mark takes $50 from Anajali's purse and turns it into $200 on the stock exchange, like water into wine. It must be a miracle, and the family quickly becomes enmeshed in his scheme, recruiting investors on his behalf, spreading the good word and the 10% profit. But when the bubble bursts, when Mark disappears, when Dilo ends up more betrayed than her whole family put together, she knows it's time to take matters into her own hands.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e From the acclaimed author of \u003ci\u003eYour Driver is Waiting,\u003c\/i\u003e with \"a ferocity of voice that belongs to Priya Guns alone\" (Camille Perri, \u003ci\u003eNYTBR\u003c\/i\u003e), \u003ci\u003eHustle, Baby\u003c\/i\u003e is a fearless and feral novel about an unhinged anti-hero with a score to settle, who will stop at nothing for revenge and redemption.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Phoenix Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47261662380201,"sku":"PHBK-9780385550482","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0578\/9899\/1785\/files\/6843073482325.jpg?v=1783982110","url":"https:\/\/myti.com\/products\/hustle-baby","provider":"Myti","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
