Skyscraper by Zane Most corporations hand out bonus checks or gift certificates for Christmas but Wolfe Industries hands out drama. Skyscraper centers around the week before the Annual Christmas Party at Wolfe Industries, the first African-American automobile manufacturer. It examines the lives of four central characters: Chico, an 18-year-old mailroom clerk, Anastasia, a 25-year-old secretary, Diana, a 37-year-old executive assistant, and Tomalis Wolfe, the 50-year-old CEO.
The week leading up to the Christmas party is unforgettable, as the lives of four people who have barely interacted with each other in the past begin to cross paths in the most disturbing ways. By the time the actual party takes place, they will be lucky if the Wolfe Industries Skyscraper is still standing.

Mya’s Story by Darnishia Bolden “I am my father’s daughter,” is Mya’s mantra as she prepares to abort another fetus, one she had contemplated carrying to full term after a botched abortion. Afterall the abortionist’s message had been terrifying and clear: “It might have no head, no arms.”
Mya Sheppard, the most beautiful of Donovan Sheppard’s daughters, cultivates many careless and restless behaviors. Killing is simply one of them. She and her beguiling sisters emerge from a home where love is dictated by a Father who lost his dreams to Vietnam. Love to them is a shadowy figure trapped and twisted among sweet and wicked, fairytales and religion, mother and father, God and Satan. Depending on the sister, truth is destorted by the grieving memories of unfinished childhoods. The family secrets and shame assign each girl a fate of love, fear, hurt, and destruction.
