From international phenomenon Angie Thomas comes a hard-hitting return to Garden Heights with the story of Maverick Carter, Starr' s father, set seventeen years before the events of the award-winning The Hate U Give. With his King Lord dad in prison and his mom working two jobs, seventeen-year-old Maverick Carter helps the only way he knows how: slinging drugs. Life' s not perfect, but he' s got everything under control. Until he finds out he' s a father. . . Suddenly it' s not so easy to deal drugs and finish school with a baby dependent on him for everything. So when he' s offered the chance to go straight, he takes it. But when King Lord blood runs through your veins, you don' t get to just walk away.
