Publisher's Summary

He thought he’d done everything right. With his world falling apart, is his salvation the child he doesn’t understand? 

Greg Jackson believes he’s earned every good thing. A decorated cop in the K9 division, he excels at putting away the bad guys. Though he knows how to handle any problem on the streets, he’s completely undone at home, when his son is diagnosed with autism. 

Relying on alcohol to manage the stress, he’s delighted to discover that the liquor fuels dreams wherein he can connect and have a normal relationship with his boy. But when the booze leads to a deadly mistake at work, Greg finds himself in a churning cauldron of social unrest ready to boil over. 

Can the embattled policeman survive a political firestorm and learn to appreciate what he has?

Desperate Pursuits is a riveting family drama novel. If you like flawed heroes, heart-wrenching twists, and autism pride, then you’ll love Gerald Turning Jr’s inspiring tale.
