Description
Vernell LaQuan Banks and Justyce McAllister grew up a block apart in the Southwest Atlanta neighborhood of Wynwood Heights. Shortly after teenager Quan enters a not guilty plea for the shooting death of a police officer, he is placed in a holding cell to await trial. Through a series of flashbacks and letters to his friend Justyce, Quan's story unravels: from a troubled childhood and bad timing to a coerced confession and prejudiced police work.-- adapted from back cover
