About this book
In the Bronx, three teenagers from vastly different backgrounds form an unlikely friendship. Tamika is a hearing-impaired fifteen-year-old, Jimmi is an eighteen-year-old veteran who stopped taking his medication, and Fatima is a sixteen-year-old illegal immigrant from Africa. As their lives intertwine, the bonds they form are tested by the weight of their circumstances, leading to devastating results.
