Jewish Voice and Opinion Staff wishes Editor-In-Chief Susan Rosenbluth success on the publication of her first novel, Blurred Vision.

Blurred Vision Plot Summary

When Atlantic City Detective Alex Waldman answers an early-morning call to a murder scene, he finds a Black teenage boy with a knife protruding from his ribs—a sight that instantly ignites memories Alex has spent twelve years trying to bury. Caught between duty and unresolved guilt in what looks like a potential hate crime, Alex arrests the only suspect, J.J., a frightened runaway caught trying to flee.

But J.J. isn’t who he claims to be. As Alex presses harder for answers, his longtime partner, Lieutenant Isaac Lucas, worries the detective’s buried trauma is clouding his judgment. When Isaac sees through J.J.’s delinquent facade, his growing empathy for the boy fractures the investigation along dangerous fault lines.

What follows is a high-stakes psychological battle over deception and moral responsibility—centered on a boy whose secrets from a cult he is desperate to escape threaten everyone involved. Grounded in procedural realism, Blurred Vision is a tense thriller about justice perverted, faith abused, and the ultimate cost of unresolved trauma.

Blurred Vision is available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and publisher Redadept Publishing
