"A must-read."-ANGIE THOMAS, author of The Hate U Give
Justyce McAllister is a good kid. An honor student. Always there to help a friend.
So why is he the one in handcuffs?
Despite leaving his rough neighborhood, Justyce McAllister can't seem to escape the scorn of his former peers or the attitude of his new classmates at Braselton Prep. Captain of the debate team and Ivy League-bound, Justyce has studied the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. But do they hold up now? He starts a journal addressed to Dr. King to find out.
Then comes the day Justyce goes driving with his best friend, Manny, windows rolled down, music turned up-way up, sparking the fury of a white off-duty cop beside them. Words fly. Shots are fired. Justyce and Manny are caught in the crosshairs. And in the media fallout, it's Justyce who is under attack.
