Someone’s girl? No. The victim is a married man and the Assistant DA. As Chief of Security at Farleigh Technical State. Perry is compelled to find the killer. Uncomfortable with dissecting the man's life, Perry fears his own prejudices may taint his vision of justice. To unravel Wilkinson’s death, he must come to terms with men of color living dual lives. He comes to realize that justice must be blind and that pain, suffering, and loneliness have no borders.
