When Jason Stone first looked in the safe deposit box, he had no idea what the three items meant. He had no idea why he was chosen, and he had no idea what was in store for him next. He couldn’t rely on his parents, they’ve been dead for over five years. Would his foster parents be there for him, or would he be on his own again? His boring life as a freshman in high school was about to change. The question he had was would it be for the better or for the worse? Once his summer was over he would know who stood with him and who stood against him. Being fifteen is hard enough, throw in uncertainty, insecurity, and confusion and there is no telling who is going to come out the winner.

The stunning sequel to the #1 New York Times bestseller Dear Martin. Incarcerated teen Quan writes letters to Justyce about his experiences in the American juvenile justice system. Perfect for fans of Jason Reynolds and Angie Thomas. In the highly anticipated sequel to her New York Times bestseller, Nic Stone delivers an unflinching look into the flawed practices and silenced voices in the American juvenile justice system.

Through a series of flashbacks, vignettes, and letters to Justyce--the protagonist of Dear Martin--Quan's story takes form. Troubles at home and misunderstandings at school give rise to police encounters and tough decisions. But then there's a dead cop and a weapon with Quan's prints on it. What leads a bright kid down a road to a murder charge? Not even Quan is sure. "A powerful, raw, must-read told through the lens of a Black boy ensnared by our broken criminal justice system." -Kirkus, Starred Review
