About this book

It tells the story of Kiara and her brother, Marcus, who are trying to survive in an East Oakland apartment complex, the Regal-Hi. Both have left high school, their family fragmented by death and imprisonment.

Marcus dreams of becoming a rap artist, while Kiara seeks employment to cover their soaring rent. She also looks after a nine-year-old boy next door, abandoned by his mother. A chance encounter leads Kiara to a job she never imagined she’d take: nightcrawling. Her world broadens when she becomes a key witness in a major scandal involving the Oakland Police Department. The book has been lauded for its poignant depiction of resilience and hope.
