International phenomenon Angie Thomas revisits Garden Heights seventeen years before the events of The Hate U Give in this searing and poignant exploration of Black boyhood and manhood. A Printz Honor Book!
If there’s one thing seventeen-year-old Maverick Carter knows, it’s that a real man takes care of his family. As the son of a former gang legend, Mav does that the only way he knows how: dealing for the King Lords. With this money he can help his mom, who works two jobs while his dad’s in prison.
Life’s not perfect, but with a fly girlfriend and a cousin who always has his back, Mav’s got everything under control.
Until, that is, Maverick finds out he’s a father.
Suddenly he has a baby, Seven, who depends on him for everything. But it’s not so easy to sling dope, finish school, and raise a child. So when he’s offered the chance to go straight, he takes it. In a world where he’s expected to amount to nothing, maybe Mav can prove he’s different.
When King Lord blood runs through your veins, though, you can't just walk away. Loyalty, revenge, and responsibility threaten to tear Mav apart, especially after the brutal murder of a loved one. He’ll have to figure out for himself what it really means to be a man.

Zustand: Muy bueno. : En esta conmovedora exploración de la juventud y la madurez masculina negra, Angie Thomas, autora del fenómeno internacional The Hate U Give, regresa a Garden Heights diecisiete años antes de los acontecimientos narrados en su anterior novela. Si hay algo que Maverick Carter, de diecisiete años, sabe, es que un hombre de verdad cuida de su familia. Como hijo de una antigua leyenda de las bandas, Mav lo hace de la única forma que conoce: traficando para los King Lords. Con este dinero puede ayudar a su madre, que tiene dos trabajos mientras su padre está en la cárcel. La vida no es perfecta, pero con una novia atractiva y un primo que siempre le cubre las espaldas, Mav lo tiene todo bajo control. Hasta que Maverick descubre que va a ser padre. De repente, tiene un bebé, Seven, que depende de él para todo. Pero no es tan fácil trapichear con drogas, terminar la escuela y criar a un hijo. Así que, cuando le ofrecen la oportunidad de enderezarse, la acepta. En un mundo donde se espera que no llegue a nada, tal vez Mav pueda demostrar que es diferente. Sin embargo, cuando la sangre de King Lord corre por tus venas, no puedes simplemente marcharte. La lealtad, la venganza y la responsabilidad amenazan con destrozar a Mav, especialmente tras el brutal asesinato de un ser querido. Tendrá que averiguar por sí mismo lo que realmente significa ser un hombre.
