Publisher's Summary
Number-one New York Times best seller
From international phenomenon Angie Thomas comes a hard-hitting return to Garden Heights with the story of Maverick Carter, Starr’s father, set 17 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, 17-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.

Draws you in and keeps you listening.
The story itself, fantastic! Especially if you have read The hate U give.
But what really makes it, is the narrator. He brings the characters to life. You feel like you are right there with them all.
I highly recommend that you give this one, your time.

Perfect narration
Nice to see where it all began with Maverick. Does have the same emotional punch as The Hate You Give but still an excellent read/listen.
