Overview

"October 1st, 2017 is a date Temika Harden will never forget - her nineteen-year-old son, Domiquo Riley, was senselessly gunned down one night in front of the Midnight Blu night club. The crime would be featured on the ""Flashing Colors"" episode of The First 48. Displeased with their portrayal of her son, Temika Harden pens her own personal account of what happened that day, the investigation following her son's murder, and her own feelings about losing her child.In a testament to the gut-wrenching wakeup call many parents and loved ones must face in the wake of gun violence, this book also brings the stories of three other mothers who lost their children to gun violence: Ricky Julious, gunned down in broad daylight on March 22nd, 2017, as well as Tra'Mon Matthews on April 5th, 2017, and Adoniyah Pruitt on November 17th, 2017, both shot and killed by their cousins in two different states on two different occasions.These raw and emotional accounts of the aftermath of losing a loved one are written in each mother's own words and provide a heartbreaking true look at the consequences of gun violence."
