Arthur Wallace (better known as Big Cowboy) born and raised in the gritty no non-sense streets of Watts, California. One of the original members of the Holme Town Watts Crip and like the many other reputable and notorious Watts gang bangers, flockers, hustlers and bailers, he followed in deep and well defined footsteps left by those who came before him.

As one of his neighborhood's primary drug pusher, he made the decision years ago to step away from the violent rivalry between the Crips and Bloods of the Watts, Los Angeles and Compton areas. The decision was made in order that he might focus solely on building a legitimate financial foundation and a future empire. In an atmosphere of quiet whispers by some of his homies who believe that he's gotten soft over the years due to his money, two of his closes friends are murdered and makes him reconsider his decision to step away from cripping. Tom between his love for his homies or chasing his dreams, he has to choose and that choice might bring all he's worked for to a crashing end.

Winter In Watts, paints a full and vivid picture of all the complexities, hopes, dangers fears and frustrations experienced inside the hood. It provides a tantalizingly good view into the interrelated characters of a true Watts street gang and its culture while at the same time being entertaining.
