Squandered Souls (Paperback)

Squandered Souls questions life in the inner-city. It's about the everyday honest citizen who refuses to surrender their neighborhoods to Sons and daughters that plague the corners with drugs and guns and senseless violence. It's about stopping the unlawful selling of brand new nine millimeter handguns, and a significant number of Uizs before the city is flooded with them. Its about knowing that things must improve for poor blacks or else the affluent children of tomorrow aren't going to have a worthwhile world to inhabit. It's about returning to your roots. characters: Karl Wright, the protagonist, a black assistant prosecuting attorney heads the D.A.'s Gun Division in Baltimore City, his wife Justine, a white successful criminal attorney; a newspaper reporter, Asim Norris who is more interested in a story than in peoples lives; a private investigator, Charles Garner, a lone wolf-type carrying a subplot about the kind of morality which got the community into avenging the murder of family members can become an endless round of community self-destruction. And two unconventional, narcotic detectives, Troy Bey and Constant Morella, turned loose to catch a new breed of criminals.
