About This Book
Tyrell is a young African-American teen who can’t get a break. He’s living (for now) with his spaced out mother and little brother in a homeless shelter. His father is in jail. His girlfriend supports him, but he doesn’t feel good enough for her—and seems to be always on the verge of doing the wrong thing around her.
