- Summary:
- "Inspired by the 2004 death of seventeen-year-old Jeffrey Reodica by a plain-clothes police officer in Toronto, The Making of St. Jerome is a poignant look at the aftermath of a teenager's untimely death, the media's role on the truth, and one family's attempt to reconcile a haunting reality. When Jason De Jesus discovers his younger brother Jerome is the victim of a senseless shooting, his world is suddenly filled with questions surrounding Jerome's death. Was his brother innocent, or was he the victim of a racial hate crime? Or is the truth more complex, falling somewhere in the middle? Internalizing his survivor's guilt while reflecting on his strained relationship with Jerome, Jason's quest for truth and justice is tainted as he discovers there are no simple answers."-- Provided by publisher.
