Turned Up

It’s time for SAC Gaines, also known as Hot Shot, to turn up the heat on the Inglewood 13s and get the vengeance he seeks for his family. Will he be able to maintain his professionalism without letting his emotions override the task at hand?

Turned Up is the third installment of the Hot Shot series. Hot Shot is back home in California. Operation Clean Up is his mission, but not his primary concern. He has been tasked with bringing down the Inglewood 13s gang, since they’ve been targeted by the FBI. This suits Hot Shot just fine, because the Inglewood 13s are also responsible for the murders of his parents and his brother. This mission gives Hot Shot the opportunity to do his job and get the revenge he seeks.

Hot Shot has become increasingly more violent, almost to the point where he has no control, and that bothers him greatly. Yet, he’s dead set on murdering every man or woman that had anything to do with the murders of his family.

Raised in Inglewood, California, Clifford had numerous encounters with drugs, mayhem, and ultimately, the California Youth Authority. These experiences gave Clifford a template of street life. The hustle of welfare-dependent families sculpted by the day to day hood life that he experienced provides the imagery he displays in his work.
