When Suburbia Turns Hostile | Chicago News
Description
When a Black couple moves from Chicago to a luxurious, mostly white suburb in search of peace, they quickly discover their dream home is anything but tranquil. Dawn Turner’s gripping new novel, “Majestic Hills,” follows Langdon and Josephine Blaque as they navigate subtle racism, unsettling events, and the strain on their marriage—all while contrasting their privileged life with the struggles of longtime residents like Lonnie and her activist teen son Wade. Drawing from her own experiences, Turner crafts a suspenseful, emotionally charged story that explores race, class, and the hidden fractures beneath suburban perfection.
