Seen (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578962917)

Jason Royals wouldn't miss church for love or money. Now love and money? That was a different story. He downplayed the "love" part when he asked his mother's permission to meet a friend with the inside track on a summer job. But it was a budding romance that put pep in his step on his way to Wellstein's Pharmacy one bright spring morning. Young, smart and ambitious, Jason had every advantage in life but one. It was that one that made all the difference. Sprinting to beat a traffic light, he caught the attention of a police officer en route to a nearby murder scene. Running while Black and wearing tan pants, Jason fit the description. Told, in part, from the perspective of veteran homicide detective John Marshall, Seen is the story of two men struggling to define their lives in a world all too eager to write their roles.
