Description
In the wake of a devastating loss, a teen boy makes a single, urgent decision: to take a ride that will change everything. As he travels through his neighborhood, he is confronted by the voices of those he has lost and forced to weigh loyalty, grief, and the dangerous pull of revenge. Told with Jason Reynolds’s signature immediacy and lyrical momentum, the story blends suspense with emotional clarity as it explores how cycles of violence begin, persist, and can be interrupted. More than a thriller, it’s a powerful meditation on family, identity, and the choices that define a life—especially when time is running out.
