MAMA'S BOY

He was brilliantly clever mass murderer who arranged his blood orgies to look like the work of the family's father. But that night he would make two mistakes: slay the family of the brother of New York cop Jake Harrow; and overlook Winston, a wide-eyed young witness to his slaughter. When the wise-cracking white cop and the traumatised black boy team up to track down the true killer they become ensnared in a deadly duel of trap and counter-trap.
