HTML:<p><strong>"A high-speed story that will draw teens in and keep them turning pages until they reach the unpredictable and thrilling ending. A must for YA collections." (School Library Journel)</strong></p> <p><strong>A timely, gripping teen novel about a boy who must take up the search for his sister when she goes missing from a neighborhood where black girls' disappearances are too often overlooked, from debut author Pamela Harris. Perfect for fans of Jason Reynolds and Tiffany D. Jackson.</strong></p> <p>When you look like us—brown skin, brown eyes, black braids or fades—everyone else thinks you're trouble. No one even blinks twice over a missing black girl from public housing because she must've brought whatever happened to her upon herself. I, Jay Murphy, can admit that, for a minute, I thought my sister Nicole just got caught up with her boyfriend—a drug dealer—and his friends. But she's been gone too long. Nic, where are you?</p> <p>If I hadn't hung up on her that night, she would be at our house, spending time with Grandma.</p> <p>If I was a better brother, she'd be finishing senior year instead of being another name on a missing persons list.</p> <p>It's time to step up, to do what the Newport News police department won't.</p> <p>Bring her home.</p>.
