About this audiobook
Ghost of a City is an urban coming-of-age novel by Deonte Ashe set in Southeast San Diego. The story follows DJ Johnson, a young basketball player caught between family, loyalty, love, school pressure, and the violence surrounding his city. Raised with structure, faith, and discipline, DJ tries to stay neutral, but the streets keep testing him in ways he never asked for. As friendships are challenged, rivalries grow, and tragedy reshapes his world, DJ learns that survival is not only about strength. It is about restraint, wisdom, sacrifice, and choosing life over pride. Cinematic, emotional, and deeply reflective, Ghost of a City is a story about growing up too fast in a place where every choice carries weight.
