Flowers for the Living

"A riveting story of how a suicidal African-American teenager's forcing a young white cop to kill him devastates the teenager s mother as well the rookie cop. It also sparks a massive race riot and puts the mother and rookie in the crosshairs of a deranged gunman.
The only place Emma Jennings, the mother, and Russell Rusty Carter, Jr., the cop, find refuge from the chaos engulfing them is the teenager s serenely beautiful grave. Through initially awkward meetings there, Emma and Rusty establish a bond that they must ultimately rely on to rebuild their lives and help heal their city. "

""Standing on Holy Ground" is an inspiring work of good overcoming evil. It is a ruthlessly
honest account of the new progressive South still struggling with a very old legacy of hate."--"USA Today""
