Ditch Lilies Erica L Smith

Ditch Lilies chronicles street youth in late 1980's Pittsburgh, when Downtown's major avenues hopped with vice and depravity. The homeless and displaced kids who find themselves at the center of its sensual squalor put survival first with consequences left to chance.

Daimey is the young urban emperor struggling to not cave to the inner decay of life on Liberty Avenue. His partner, Kat, is just looking for a life not her own. At the crossroads of priorities and personal demons, the decisions they make shape far more than their individual journeys.

Culturally diverse and explicit, Ditch Lilies is rich with gritty travels that sometimes end in redemption, and sometimes not.
