Stick-Up Girl

Deneisha Lewis has graduated from petty theft to the big leagues-life as a Stick-up Girl.

When Deneisha Lewis was released from the Cobb County Adult Detention Center after doing a year for shoplifting, she knew that she had to do something other than boosting if she was going to make real money, so she became a Stick-up Girl. The kind that sticks a gun in somebody’s face and takes what she wants.

After a string of murders in Atlanta, Deneisha travels south to Jacksonville to lay low. There, she meets Dallas, who robs drug dealers. He tells her that he doesn’t come out of the house for less than ten thousand dollars and teaches her how to stick-up his way. He has one rule- come through the door blasting and don’t leave any witnesses or muthafuckas that wanna come after us.

Their fateful connection will lead Deneisha on a wild ride that she never could have expected.
