Overview
In the face of an unjust system, a teenager with a bright future may lose everything over a crime he did not commit, but his mother will do anything to see her son walk free. Demarcus Jones is a star high school basketball player who earns a full athletic scholarship to one of the most prestigious universities in the world, when his plans are derailed by his arrest for a heinous crime he did not commit. For seventeen-year-old Demarcus of the Bronx, New York, it feels like he is caught up in a Twilight Zone, with a positive identification by the victim, overzealous detectives driven by the motto ""guilty until proven innocent,"" and a charismatic, undefeated District Attorney determined to prosecute him to the full extent of the law. Certainly, the truth will soon be revealed, and everyone will see he is innocent? Unbeknownst to Demarcus, he is now the fall guy. For the real culprit, the truth can never be revealed at any cost, by any means necessary. He has too much to lose and enough resources to stay one step ahead of the law. He is wealthy and successful with a powerful family who has all the right connections to maintain his freedom. They are no match for the teenage boy and his single mother. It is a done deal. However, Naomi Jones is not going down without a fight and refuses to let any ungodly injustice take her only son's future away. It becomes a bloody war in the quest for truth and justice. One side is out for blood while the other side is pleading the Blood. Only one side can win. Will justice prevail?

Author Information
Theresa A. Campbell is the author of the soul-fulfilling, entertaining novels, ""Marked at Birth"", ""His Final Deal"", ""Are You There, God?"" and its sequel, ""God Has spoken."" Her first novel, ""Are You There,God?"" was selected as a Must-Read HEA romance in 2015 by USA Today. Growing up in rural Jamaica without electricity until she was about 11years old made Theresa read a lot. The lack of modern amenities did not detract from her creativity; in a sense, it improved her ability to see the ending of a story from a different perspective. Theresa's sense of purpose is entrenched in the belief that God is always there for us, and she knows in her heart that she has to share this with her readers. It's Theresa's objective to keep it real at all times in her books so everyone can relate to her characters.
