The Devil’s Due

di Terrence Brown (Autore)

Terrence Brown, 2026

Jamal Williams Jr. was born into a name that promised greatness—and demanded it. As the son of a basketball legend, the world expects him to rise effortlessly into his father's shadow. But talent alone isn't enough, and Jamal knows it. Beneath the luxury, the parties, and the hollow praise, he feels like a fraud struggling to live up to a legacy that was never his to claim. When failure closes in and opportunity slips away, Jamal hears a whisper in the dark—one that understands his resentment, his hunger, and his desperation. The Devil doesn't arrive with fire and brimstone, but with promises: power, recognition, and a chance to finally be seen. All it will cost is pieces of Jamal's soul, surrendered one choice at a time. As Jamal's rise begins, so does his unraveling. Fame and influence follow him, but so does dread. Reality fractures. Paranoia creeps in. The Devil's presence grows stronger, pushing Jamal toward acts he never believed himself capable of committing. Each victory feels emptier than the last, and the applause can't drown out the fear that he's losing himself forever. Caught in the fallout are two people who know Jamal best. Keisha, the woman who loves him despite his darkness, fights to hold onto the man she believes still exists beneath the corruption. Cory, once a friend and now a rival, watches Jamal's ascent with growing suspicion and resentment, determined to expose the truth behind the illusion. As pressure mounts and the world turns against him, Jamal is forced into an ultimate confrontation—between ambition and humanity, damnation and defiance. The Devil demands his final payment, and Jamal must decide whether greatness is worth the cost of his soul. The Devil's Due is a dark psychological thriller about legacy, temptation, and the quiet ways evil takes hold. It explores how isolation, pride, and the need to prove oneself can become gateways to destruction—and whether, even at the edge of damnation, a final choice can still matter.
