From the award-winning and critically acclaimed author of This Is My
America comes another thriller about a wrongly accused teen desperate
to recclaim both his innocence and his first love. Life can change in
an instant. When you’re wrongfully accused of a crime. When a
virus shuts everything down. When the girl you love moves on.
Andre Jackson is determined to reclaim his identity. But returning
from juvie doesn’t feel like coming home. His Portland, Oregon,
neighborhood is rapidly gentrifying, and COVID-19 shuts down school
before he can return. And Andre’s suspicions about his arrest for a
crime he didn’t commit even taint his friendships. It’s as if his
whole life has been erased. The one thing Andre is counting on is his
relationship with the Whitaker kids—especially his longtime crush,
Sierra. But Sierra’s brother Eric is missing, and the facts don’t
add up as their adoptive parents fight to keep up the act that their
racially diverse family is picture-perfect. If Andre can find Eric, he
just might uncover the truth about his own arrest. But in a world
where power is held by a few and Andre is nearly invisible, searching
for the truth is a dangerous game. Critically acclaimed author Kim
Johnson delivers another social justice thriller that shines a light
on being young and Black in America—perfect for fans of The Hate U
Give by Angie Thomas and Dear Justyce by Nic Stone.
