Will he be able to maintain his professionalism without letting his emotions override the task at hand? Turned Up is the third installment of the Hot Shot series. Hot Shot is back home in California.

Yet, he's dead set on murdering every man or woman that had anything to do with the murders of his family.

Thomas accepted that, but deep in his heart, he still felt he was a Blood. Now, Thomas works for a high-tech computer company and uses his high intelligence to excel at his job. While playing a slot machine app on his phone one day, he figures out a way to be able to rig slot machines to give out the maximum payout. After he tests his theory and becomes an instant millionaire, Thomas's life changes instantly. Buying expensive jewels for his fiance and taking care of his family, he has more money than he can deal with. Keeping the secret of his get-rich-quick scheme is driving him crazy, and he decides to tell Blast--a mistake that turns his world inside out. Money, cars, lowriders, and the best of everything money can buy will lead to blackmail and eventually murder, all because Thomas can't keep a secret.
