Sunday Morning Coming Down

The crime scene was bloody and tragic. The bodies of a married couple lay crumpled in their home: the wife, a beauty with no enemies, the husband, a hardened gang member. Was the crime gang-related? Drug-related? Or was it a crime of passion?The case is assigned to young, rising prosecutor, Jesse Martinez, after a suspect is identified. For longtime detective, Joshua Crow, the case is open and shut. But Jesse Martinez grew up on the same tough streets where the crime occurred and he has doubts that things are as they appear. Perhaps the crime has hit too close to home for Martinez. Maybe Martinez's knowledge of Houston's Northside neighborhood creates conflicts that he can't overcome. Sunday Morning Coming Down, with its twists and unpredictability, will leave the reader on edge as it explores the drug trade, violent gang life, and the transition Martinez makes from crime-ridden streets to esteemed lawyer. The story culminates with a courtroom scene no one sees coming.Two sequels to Sunday Morning Coming Down have been completed. Look for From Darkness, Light and A Fiery Dusk soon.
