“一部有力而重要的小说。”观察者。

“没有其他人能像安吉那样写作，太了不起了。”卫报。

从国际现象安吉·托马斯(Angie Thomas)开始，斯塔尔的父亲马弗里克·卡特(Maverick Carter)的故事重回花园高地，故事背景设定在获奖影片“你给予的仇恨”(The Hate U Give)的17年前。

17岁的马弗里克·卡特(Maverick Carter)父亲在监狱里，他的母亲打着两份工，17岁的马弗里克·卡特(Maverick Carter)用他唯一知道的方式帮助他：投掷毒品。生活并不完美，但一切都在他的掌控之中。直到他发现自己是个父亲。

突然之间，毒品交易变得不那么容易了，带着一个什么都依赖他的婴儿完成学业就变得不那么容易了。所以当他得到改过自新的机会时，他就抓住了。但当国王领主的血液流过你的血管时，你不能就这么走开。

No. 1 New York Times bestseller

"A powerful and important novel.” Observer 

"No one else who writes like Angie. Phenomenal.” The Guardian 

From international phenomenon Angie Thomas comes a hard-hitting return to Garden Heights with the story of Maverick Carter, Starr’s father, set seventeen years before the events of the award-winning The Hate U Give.

With his King Lord dad in prison and his mom working two jobs, seventeen-year-old Maverick Carter helps the only way he knows how: slinging drugs. Life's not perfect, but he's got everything under control. Until he finds out he's a father...

Suddenly it's not so easy to deal drugs and finish school with a baby dependent on him for everything. So when he's offered the chance to go straight, he takes it. But when King Lord blood runs through your veins, you don't get to just walk away.
