Starr Carter, a sixteen-year-old, alternates between her affluent suburban prep school education and her impoverished neighbourhood. When Starr sees her childhood best friend Khalil shot and killed by a police officer, the delicate equilibrium between these two worlds is upended. Khalil had no weapons.

His death becomes national news shortly after. Some are referring to him as a gangbanger, drug dealer, and even a thug. In Khalil’s honour, demonstrators are heading to the streets. The local drug lord and a few police officers attempt to scare Starr and her family. Everyone is curious as to what really happened that evening. And Starr is the only living person who can respond to it.

However, Starr's words have the power to completely change her town. It can potentially put her life at jeopardy.

Inspired by the BLM movement, this is a compelling young adult story about a girl fighting for justice.
