From Printz honoree and National Book Award Finalist Candice Iloh, a prose novel about a teenager reckoning with her family' s--and her home town' s--secrets. Yaminah Okar left Obsidian and the wreckage of her family years ago. She and her father have made lives for themselves in Brooklyn. She thinks she' s moved on to bigger and better things. She thinks she' s finally left behind that city she would rather forget. But when a Facebook message about her estranged mother pierces Yaminah' s new bubble, memories of everything that happened before her parents' divorce come roaring back. Now, Yaminah must finally reckon with the truth about her mother and the growing collapse of a place she once called home.
