KIRKUS REVIEWS Dr. Carter Brown's thriller explores the turbulent
life of a man whose only constant is his unwavering love for his
mother. Mothers are indescribably wonderful. They have loved us
unconditionally, from the very day we entered their womb, and love
us even more the first day they set their eyes on us and carry us
in their arms. No other women will ever take their place in our
hearts. The story follows a single mother who has worked tirelessly
to educate her only child Solomon and provide him with everything
he needed. Solomon is now in college and doing well. But each night
he watch his mother enduring sleepless nights with threatening
letters from banks and bill collectors pile up, frightens Solomon.
In trying to provide for his mom, 23-year-old Solomon decides to
quit college to pursue a lucrative job in Manhattan, his mother is
furious. Undaunted, Solomon follows through on his plans, not only
for himself, but also to support his beloved mother. His job
involves fencing the stolen contents of trucking containers, which
makes him rich-but when he delves into auto theft, he's ultimately
caught and put in jail. After his release, Solomon endures a
short-lived marriage and eventually finds legitimate employment as
a taxi driver. However, an ill-fated trip with a group of bank
robbers leaves Solomon with a case full of money and sensitive bank
documents, which both the robbers and the FBI are desperate to
recover. While dodging murder attempts, torture and prison, Solomon
relies on the love and trust of his mother to stay alive.
