My Blue-Eyed Boy

When young black men begin turning up murdered across the city, each executed with a single bullet through the left eye, panic spreads and pressure mounts on the police to stop a killer no one can identify. Assigned to the case is Detective Lieutenant John Owen, a veteran investigator whose instincts remain sharp even as his body begins to fail him. Recovering from a heart attack and burdened by years of violence, regret, and too many unanswered questions, Owen knows this is no ordinary homicide spree.
The victims share a chilling pattern: harmless young men, vulnerable, trusting, and seemingly without enemies. As the body count rises, Owen is drawn into a dark maze of politics, race, corruption, and secrets hidden in the city's most powerful institutions. With time running out and danger closing in, he must confront not only a ruthless murderer, but the truths he has spent a lifetime avoiding. Dark, intelligent, and haunting, My Blue-Eyed Boy is a gripping crime thriller about innocence, obsession, and the cost of justice.
