What Goes Around Comes Around: Loyalty and Revenge

What goes around comes around is classified as Urban Fiction but I would classify it as Mystery/Thriller. It is a puzzle made for the brains of introspective thinkers but could also be relative to everyday living. Full of action, clues and a superior inter-connectivity not commonly known in authors of today. This book boggles the mind and attests to the writer's ability to find commonality among her characters.

Character Breakdown:

Detective Jimmy: He is noble and upstanding. Coming from a family of prestige with careers in law enforcement. He takes his oath to protect and serve seriously. Known for his honor and strong mental aptitude he excelled in his career on a fast track. That is until he comes across a case that would be more enlightening than the mystery it presents itself to be. 

Officer Torres: Raised to be a separatist and with a heart full of rhetoric and hatred he lives his everyday in delusion. In life he finds things that challenge his thinking. All he wants is to make Detective and it's hard to do when your mind is self-depreciating and it causes your focus to be mired. 

Roxanne: Like a phoenix she has risen from the ashes of a childhood destroyed. To survive it her education becomes her crutch. Excelling beyond her peers she has the opportunity to become a financial manager. On the outside she is perfection but on the inside she is scarred. Each new day finds her closer to eliminating the very thing that plagues her life. 

Alekzander:  He had to understand the ways of this cruel world at a young age. He was forced to be adult through secrecy. Way before he even understood that secrets have a way of coming back. When he finally hit the age of adulthood his life is shattered and it leaves him choosing to be a protector for those who are defenseless.

X: Suave, debonair and definitely about his business. He is a man inside of two worlds. His success is solidified on many avenues but his ability to plan and remain hidden are his most valuable assets. The friends he have gained are the family he always dreamed of and he will stop at nothing to avenge those whom he loves. 

Story from my perspective:

For the first time in a long time, I read a book that literally raised the goosebumps upon my flesh within the first two chapters. In the prologue we meet Roxanne and she is a character who piqued my curiosity. She seems to be this elusive image of perfection. Upon first being introduced she appears to be naive to life and bogged down by her moral compass and her sense of duty. With her academics putting her leaps and bounds above her in-subordinates she is powerful  in her own right. In between the pages you find out what it means to be literally broken only to be pieced back together stronger than ever. This is who she is and what she signifies and she shows you that she is more than meets the eye. One moment in her life almost destroyed the light in her beautiful soul but she rose above and now she wants to finally lay her past to rest so she can truly be free.

Officer Torres is the consummate racist. Raised under the tutelage of hatred for mankind that did not mirror his physical image. His father was his first teacher and the molder of his ideals. Even though his father, whom he feared, became his personal hero he was also his first disappointment. Especially when he had to learn that all the hate in his body could breed real life monsters. So his beliefs are put to the test daily. He wants love and success but his murky past leaves him feeling undeserving. Imagine what could become of a conflicted soul whose everyday living becomes the biggest dis-creditor of everything you had ever been taught.

Detective Jimmy spends his days trying to be an example to those who strive to be where he is. Everything in his life is by the book. Imagine getting stuck with a partner who combats the partnership only because of the color of your skin. His days spent with Officer Torres are definitely teachable moments blended with frustration. No matter he sees the good in his partner even though he does not see it in himself. Through their differences they form a weird brotherhood that they will come to find out is closer than they could have imagined.

Alekzander is a troubled soul wrapped up in good intentions. He found his calling to rescue the weak at the tender age of five when he had to make a decision that changed not only his life but the lives of his family as well. He is loyal to the ones that he loves and family is always first. It is why he knows that his past is something that has to be avenged and all actions are justified. 

X is one character I would classify as a smooth criminal. He has spent his life making connections and moving in silence. He is the problem solver, so you have to be sure that your problems never
reach his doorstep. His best friends Alekzander and Roxanne are as close to him as his own bloodline. That means that their issues become his and he will do nothing less than see them vindicated. 

Each character in this story taught me something. The lessons wrapped in strong Christian ideology bring importance to every moment, choice and step the character take. In all of their differences the common denominator was that you can be more than your past. How this author wove this web whose center is the bane of everyone's existence. You actually read each thread and as the design becomes clear you see that their hurts, nightmares, delusions and insanity is all tied to a moment that is unique according to their individual perspectives. I promise I enjoyed every letter and word of this book and you will not be disappointed nor bored. This seat edger is definitely a read that you should own and it is yours by clicking the link below:
