From the award-winning author of Black and White comes a harrowing story of a young teenager caught in the eye of one of the deadliest hurricanes in history.
"A riveting and readable exploration of the effects of race in today's world."-Kirkus Reviews
"Volponi pulls no punches in his visceral depiction of the horrors that New Orleans' black residents experienced."-Booklist
When Miles's mother remarries, Miles decides to move in with his father in New Orleans. But he and his father never saw eye to eye on anything-his dad lives for jazz, while Miles's first love is football. Then Hurricane Katrina hits, and the two must seek refuge in the Superdome. What would normally be a dream come true for a football fan, soon turns into a nightmare as the power fails and gangs begin to emerge and take over. And when his father decides to rebel, Miles must make a choice that will alter their relationship-and their lives-forever.
