Maximillian Muhammad, a.k.a. "mistermaxxx" As an example, Kevin M. Weeks includes old school wisdom to guide his urban main character, Teco Jackson, through his life's journey. While the provocative action-filled debut novel ''Is It Suicide or Murder?'' unveils the background of Teco Jackson, the upcoming gripping sophomore mystery thriller ''Is It Passion or Revenge?'' does what several reviewers have asked from Urban Fiction authors, which is to reveal a deeper characterization behind the "why.” Because Weeks is acknowledged as a great storyteller, readers and reviewers are eagerly anticipating the second novel which raises the bar in Weeks’ style of writing.
