 When we look at the book for the very first time , we can see on the cover of the book the
summerhouse neighborhood and Dushane one of the mainly characters in the book who is
facing the wall which means that he is going to be robbed.
 INTRODUCTION
 Dushane has fled to Jamaica, where he is getting by working in his cousin's car-rental shop. When he makes a
business deal with an imprison ed drug lord named Sugar, he returns to Summerhouse to sell Sugar's product
and become Top Boy once again. However, a new crew from London Fields, headed by the ruthless Jamie,
won't stand for Dushane stepping on their turf.Haze presses Dushane for the £10,000 that presumably his boss
doesn’t even know about; the middle man for the Jamaicans also threatens Dushane’s disabled cousin in
Jamaica. Dris suggests a robbery of someone in Bow, East London to raise funds – but Dushane isn’t sure just
yet.Sully is in prison and is caught in a power-struggle with Modie, a murderous drug-dealer who ran the rival
London Fields gang in Dushane and Sully's absence. When Sully is released, he reconnects with Jason and
Gem to begin selling in Ramsgate.In the morning Dushane and Dris prepare for their mission, however, Sully
arrives and points a pistol at them. He proposes his money as funds for their dealing – if he can be an equal
partner with the former; while ensuring two-to-one favor ratio of profit for himself on the first deal. They give
Haze his 10 thousand and take their goods.
 CHAPTER 2:SMOKE GETS IN YOUR HANDS
 At the club, Sully feels old so leaves; Dushane makes sure Dris is taking his medication.The ‘addicts’ are back giving Jaq and Dris intelligence
because the Fields gang offered them as much cocaine and heroin as they want. Dris guesses it’s Leyton running fields, though Jaq is accurate
by asserting it is new “youngers”. Dris is unhappy at being assigned surveillance as he is an assumed three-way partner.

 Jamie attempts to assert his dominance in the borough, driven to provide for his younger brothers while Dushane attempts to regain control.

 In the Fields territory, Jaq and Dris lookout for the new dealers from a civilian family’s apartment in a tower block. They decide Jamie is
running things after witnessing him assert authority. Whilst Fields now separately know that Dushane and Sully are controlling Summerhouse
again. Jamie orders them not to take revenge until he states.

 Over the phone, Dris apprises Dushane of the information; though Sully is en route back to Ramsgate to stalk and severely injure one of the
racist thugs who killed Jason. A front shop for Jamie’s connect, ran by the strange Lithe, is being watched by Jaq and Dris as the former enters.
Lizzie is surprised that he sold everything she gave him.

 Outside when leaving, Lizzie is abducted by Dris and Jaq. When the duo brief Dushane he commands them to get Jamie to meet him in the cafe
on Summerhouse estate. Jamie and Dushane argue over who is the boss of the area; whilst notifying the latter of his group Zero Tolerance’s
dominance, Jamie instructs Dushane that he will work for him. Seemingly caving, Dushane gives his opponent back the taken trafficker. When
exiting Jamie reveals that Chris Hill, Dushane’s brother, told him about the request to borrow £10,000. That concludes to chapter 3 .
 CHAPTER 3:PRESS GANG
 At the start of Top Boy chapter season three, episode six some Summerhouse runners and dealers are attacked by the ZT gang: one, Romy, is
injured from a stab wound to the chest; as well as a “younger” having acid thrown on his face.
 Dushane believes it is a warning from Jamie et all; while Sully says that the ZTs have effectively declared war. They decide to respond but
diligently. The duo then meets Haze, who gives them 20 kilos of hard drugs to sell.
 Although Dushane doesn’t want that much, Haze insists because Dushane told his boss, Sugar, that they are significant in London. Sugar is
forcing deals on to the pair – with only a month to repay consignment ‘or else’. Sully now suggests “dealing” with Jamie as paramount; in other
words killing or removing the latter from the street.
  Dris says there’s no way they can conduct enough small transactions to complete the sales in time. Along with big deals won’t happen either, as
the ZTs have told all subservient groups not to. Consequently, Dushane appears concerned and upset so therefore demands Jaq get some new
recruits for their firm.
 While over at the Fields estate on Top Boy, Jamie tells his fellow gang members that Dushane reign as a boss is coming to an end and his “opp”
is scared. Though Leyton disagrees: saying the former missed an opportunity to kill Dushane at the cafe in the previous installment of the show
 Yet Leyton is ordered not to make a move on Dushane and Sully, in case they can make money from them. If Dushane disagrees to get his supply
from the ZT conglomerate, then Leyton has permission to murder the Summerhouse Top Boys.
 Ats is determined to begin selling drugs regardless of Kieron stating that be is too soft for “road”. Although Jaq has him inducted immediately.
Leyton shoots at Sully but misses, so exits with Jermaine. Dris counties to fail to entice new members. Stef is reluctant to join Ats in his new job
or even chat to his friend’s new associates. Whilst, Ats is intoxicated by the lifestyle.
CHAPTER 3:PRESS GANG

 When Jamie hears of the attempted murder he lambastes Leyton for doing it without
permission. Over at Summerhouse, Sully wants to immediately go after Jamie, as he assumes
Jaime green-lit him. Dushane doesn’t want Sully to act now as they need police off the streets
in order to sell their drugs so that they can pay Sugar on time.
 At Reuben’s illegal car garage and gun hire/selling place, Sully arms himself and obtains a car
to “to put in work” – or attack Fields. It seems Dushane has two new shooters on-side; though
they are concerned Jamie is armed and dangerous. Although Summerhouse needs weapons to
challenge them – Sully walks in with an arsenal of firearms. Sugar has Donovan murdered
while Dushane watches in video chat as a warning not to mess around: which is attributable to
the latter trying to hide his cousin,
 CHAPTER 4:THE SQUEEZE
 Sully and his new crew of three are riding around looking for ZTs to assassinate. They see a guy from Fields but he’s a football player, not a
gangster, so they leave him.
 At Jamie’s, his brother Aaron has his girlfriend over to stay, which annoys the former. Jamie explains to Aaron and Stef that he is going
away for a period and the house is off bound for anyone else. They must go to school or university then home every day; this is because the
eldest is a target of Dushane’s gang. After their family meeting, Aaron says he knows what his brother does for a living – alluding to drugs.
  Reuben has set-up a live feed capture security system at Jamie’s flat and entrance controlled by a phone application. He is also informed
that Kit will be over to his establishment to hire the rest of his guns. Reuben also tells Jamie that he stays neutral and won’t divulge when
asked if Summerhouse had his other firearms on loan.
 Meanwhile, Jaq gives Ats an assignment; go to Manchester – or ‘country’ a slang term for outside London to sell drugs – to drop some
presumably illegal substances to contacts. Stef accompanies him.
 Lizzie invites Jamie to one of her renovated dwellings for sale. He gives her money and gets another “kneecapping” lesson or a punishment
beating detailing.
 Two particularly creepy and tough-looking fellas pick up Ats and Stef in an expensive G-Wagon Mercedes. In the back of a scary restaurant
used by Jaq’s Mancunian drug dealers for illicit business, the pair threaten the youths. But it appears they are just joking. The Mancs take
their bag of goods and give them one to take home. It seems Ats is determined to continue “shotting” – selling narcotics – to provide money
for him and his mother to remain in their house.
 CHAPTER 4:THE SQUEEZE
 Unfortunately for Leyton, he is spotted by a female fellow gang member talking to Cornell from the late Cam’s A-Roads faction. Now Jamie
hears Sully is also visible so goes to kill him while the girl is told to kneecap Leyton.
 On their way home, a masked man steals the backpack that Stef is carrying; Jaq says they’re now in her debt. Although she has played them,
it was a ruse to get to Jamie through Stef in some manner; it was Dushane’s plan which Jaq feels sympathy over. When Stef arrives to his flat
late, he makes Aaron promise not to appraise Jamie that he broke the rules. Aaron denies that the eldest is a Top Boy.
 Whilst out riding, Sully and his boys carry on late searching for ZTs. Leyton is interrogated but doesn’t admit any wrongdoing. When they
shoot him they hit an artery and he bleeds to death. They don’t appear concerned for him, only for themselves.
  Although Sully returns fire, the assailants escape unhurt. Howes, Jamie is very angry to hear of Leyton’s demise; only because they have to
lie to Modie. Their phony story is that Leyton was killed by Summerhouse gangsters in revenge for the funeral shooting.
 Haze asks Dushane if they’ll have trouble over Donovan’s death, the former says no. On the same subject, Haze also notifies the latter that he
stopped Sugar ordering the torture of the “cripple”, too – so Dushane should feel thankful.
 Unimpressed, Haze is annoyed his wholesaler needs more time to sell and threatens to kill him. Though Dushane calls his bluff knowing
Sugar will attack Haze due to Dushane’s debt being lost. Subsequently, Haze says he’ll kill Dushane’s mum, girlfriend, and her daughter if
the payment is not timely.
 In the cafe, Sully assigns a gunman to Pat’s door. Yet Dushane is preoccupied with Jamie’s potential demise and strength. The former thinks
their heart and teamwork will suffice if his friend steps up. Though Dushane is reflective over the deaths and what the consequences of their
actions may be. While Sully suggests this is their only viable vocation.
 CHAPTER 5:BAD EYE
 Ats says, unfairly, it’s Stef’s fault that they are indebted to Jaq – they have a fight before school. Jermaine leaves his client with the bill at a fancy
restaurant and leaves.
 Meanwhile the latter, along with his faction of the old Fields gang, enable Modie’s escape from custody. Jamie and the ZTs are worried to hear of
their former leader’s freedom, as he is the new self-appointed leader and Modie will assume control by any means necessary.
 Dushane, Sully and their henchmen arrive at a safehouse but are unimpressed at the location the consistently inconsistency Dris has arranged
because it’s a ‘bando’, basically.
 Stef finds Jamie’s stash of cash in his bedroom and realizes his father figure and brother is a ‘roadman’ or drug dealer. Although Aaron says the
elder provides for them and isn’t violent; understandably Stef is concerned for his sibling even with Aaron’s reassurance.
  Jermaine and Modie are also holed up somewhere secret; Modie risks his rearrest due to talking on the phone to the former’s annoyance. Modie
also owes Jermaine money and says he’ll settle the debt when they kill Sully.
 Lauryn gets a job as Shelly’s receptionist in a new beauty therapy venture. The Summerhouse crew discuss the intricacies of the ZT Top Boy and
their supplier. Although Jamie is yearning after intimacy with Lizzie once more; yet she is only interested in their business arrangement. Lithe gets
a visit from Dushane and Jaq but they are not there to shop but to extract details about the antique store front’s owner.
 Whilst eating at a restaurant with his family and Aaron’s girlfriend, Jamie ensures two of his men watch over them. Lizzie’s home is invaded by
Dushane et all. He wants the particulars about the ZT organization so to launch an attack, and possibly take the connection for himself. She is
interested in saving her life and being Summerhouse’s supplier; offering a franchise.
CHAPTER 5:BAD EYE

 Following their meal, Jamie is abducted by Jermaine in a friendly manner in front of his
family. Modie inquiries if Jamie is running the mandem now, with a gun pointed at the latter’s
groin. He is menacing Jamie because he wants to be Fields’ Top Boy once more. Jamie says he
simply stepped in while Modie was away.
 Then Modie quizzes his fellow gang-member over Leyton’s whereabouts. Jamie lies, saying
Summerhouse killed Leyton; he also tries to convince Modie that they are more organized
now and can help him escape. However, Modie assures him he’s going nowhere and asks for
the profit he’s been making. 
 C H A P T E R 6 : E V E R Y O N E ’ S G O T FA M I LY
 The penultimate chapter of Top Boy begins with Sugar’s assassination at the behest of Dushane .Sheanay executed the former by
posing as a stripper and poisoning him in prison. Haze meets his demise at Dushane’s hands personally; thus concluding that Jamaican
contingent’s involvement in East London drug dealing.
 Lizzie is instructed to have Jamie attend a fake deal where he’ll be murdered by the Summerhouse gang; she is only concerned about
the mess in one of her properties. Kit and Jamie discuss their Dushane and Modie problems; then the latter gets the invite from Lizzie.
  Jaq beats up her sister Lauryn because she was dating Leyton and feeding him details about Dushane and Sully.
 Modie holds court with the ‘mandem’. He proposes killing the entire Summerhouse firm; Jamie warns him to be more careful or police
will get him. Then Modie orders Jamie his rival for the ZT leadership to set-up a meeting with him and the ‘connect’.
 Dushane informs Lizzie that she’ll have to be present for Jamie’s demise to put him into a false sense of security, or she’ll die too. She
isn’t bothered anyway and agrees. Afterwards Jaq tells Dushane what Lauryn did; Jaq tries to protect her because he and Sully will kill
her sister. Then Jaq is told she’ll meet her end too unless she finds her sister.
 Whilst their men prepare the weapons, Top Boys Dushane and Sully discuss their rise and future, which they see as much of the same.
Subsequently, the duo allows Dris to leave and not participate in the hit, he is unimpressed. After that Jaq is told by Dushane that
Lauryn is banished and Sully won’t be notified about her deeds if she doesn’t return.
C H A P T E R 6 : E V E R Y O N E ’ S G O T FA M I LY

 After counting Lizzie’s money, Jamie is picked up aggressively once more by Jermaine and
Modie because they know, from someone, where Dushane’s safe house is. Consequently, the
trio shoots the two Summerhouse henchmen but Sully and Dushane escape unharmed. Though
Modie discovers Lizzie and they kidnap her from her previous kidnapping
 CHAPTER 7:YOU DON’T KNOW ME
 At the beginning of the finale of Top Boy, Sully is convalescing at his ex’s house, as it turns out he was winged. Though she argues
with Jaq as she doesn’t want gangsters there. Dushane and the former discuss whether Dris gave their address to the Fields leaders;
along with how to kill Jamie.
 Over at the Fields/ZT hideout, Jermaine arranges a dodgy doctor to heal Modie’s eye. Lizzie tells him that her suppliers won’t meet
him; Modie insists she will reveal the persons eventually. Dris is picked up by Dushane and given disinformation to pass on to
Jamie; they do this so he can be identified as their crew’s informer.
 Modie gets treated by his off-duty doc, by being given some eye drops yet he seems to get more irritated when driving away. When
armed police stop his vehicle, he goes to scratch his eye but the cops shoot him dead. Jamie tries to overpower Jermaine but he beats
him and Lizzie. She stabs him then he attempts to strangle her; Jamie jumps back in. They all stop, oddly, to view the breaking news
of Modie’s demise.
 Next, we see Lizzie crying in her bathtub. While Jamie checks the cameras at his home. Reuben is making bullets when Dushane
pays him a visit; the latter wants Jamie’s home address although Reuben insists he doesn’t give clients’ details as a policy. However,
Dushane reminds the arms dealer of the fact that they go way back. Not to mention his firm is loyal but the ZTs won’t be.
 During a meeting, the ZTs are informed by Jamie that Jermaine won’t be getting involved in their business anymore and instructs
everyone to try to eliminate Dushane. The addicts from Summerhouse are asked by Jamie to find anything out about Sully and
Dushane then report it back. Ats is ordered by Jaq and Keiron to plant drugs in Jamie’s apartment.
 CHAPTER 7:YOU DON’T KNOW ME
 A surprised Jamie lets Dris know that he will be finished when Summerhouse discovers his disloyalty; Dris still gives Jamie the fake intelligence. Afterward,
Dushane sets-up Jamie by calling the police about the bag of illegal items that Ats stashed at his friend Stef’s home. Simultaneously Sully notifies Dris that
they’re ready to ambush Jamie; though the pair watch the ZTs raid their cafe from a distance before Sully murders Dris for selling them out.
 Arron argues with Jamie for getting he and his girlfriend arrested – they hug. Due to the way they framed Jamie, Sully is in turmoil; though Dushane
believes a victory is a victory.
 Because Ats was the one to betray Jamie’s family, Kit prepares to shoot the child with a shotgun. However, Ats’ mother fights off the gunman – nobody is
hurt. Shelly tells Dushane his mum doesn’t want to see him for his involvement in Donovan’s death. Although she thanks him for enabling Lauryn’s
departure from the area, also inviting him to see Trish’s next swimming race.
 This last chapter of Top Boy almost comes to an end with a montage: Jaq manages her runners as well as using Lizzie as the connect. Romy and the guys get
rid of some opposition from Summerhouse turf; Dushane laughs with his new dealers. Then everyone, including the boy who was covered with acid, party at
the club.
 The council announce plans to re-home some residents; Sully looks fondly at his happy daughter. Subsequently, Dushane offers to help free Jamie as an
ultimatum because of the video evidence of Ats planting the illegal material at his home – if Jamie works for him. We discover the drug fiends are
undercover police officers.

 I like this book because I was very impressed about Jamie's story , how he lost both of his
parents and he is doing his best for helping his brothers.
 He inspired me a lot....
