Soon Jerome meets another ghost: Emmett Till, a boy from a very different time but similar circumstances. Emmett helps Jerome process what has happened, on a journey towards recognizing how historical racism may have led to the events that ended his life. Jerome also meets Sarah, the daughter of the police officer, who grapples with her father's actions. Once again Jewell Parker Rhodes deftly weaves historical and socio-political layers into a gripping and poignant story about how children and families face the complexities of today's world, and how one boy grows to understand American blackness in the aftermath of his own death.

Book excerpt: Athena: Connecting with my brothers was a dream I'd always prayed would come true. They were the exact opposite of our father, thankfully, except for the fact that all three of them were protective to a fault, something I sometimes enjoyed, yet at other times I wanted nothing more than to throttle them. Every last one of them. I now had a family and people to love unconditionally and care for; things I never expected based on the upbringing that was forced upon me. Is it possible that I might win the man of my dreams heart? I'm going to do everything within my power to ensure this outcome. I deserve a little joy and happiness in my life. Liam: The best part about being a valued member of the Ghost Team is the comradery I have built with the other mercenaries. Growing up a military brat, I had planned to serve my country for the rest of my life, or at least until they forced me to retire. Our last mission forced us all to step back and reevaluate what we wanted, but our commander Silas had another formidable plan in mind, one that we all wholeheartedly agreed with putting into effect. What I never expected to find was that one woman who could bring me to my knees, vanquishing my old demons and providing me with a new outcome on life. Making her mine. When a threat against Athena forces her and Liam to flee to a safe house until the brothers can locate where it's coming from, they find themselves deep in Amish country, living as husband and wife. Can Athena and Liam navigate through their twisted lives and nightmares to come out on the other side as one cohesive unit? Or will the lengths they need to go to and the hurdles to jump be more than this couple can endure?

A cannon. A strap. A piece. A biscuit. A burner. A heater. A chopper. A gat. A hammer A tool for RULE Or, you can call it a gun. That’s what fifteen-year-old Will has shoved in the back waistband of his jeans. See, his brother Shawn was just murdered. And Will knows the rules. No crying. No snitching. Revenge. That’s where Will’s now heading, with that gun shoved in the back waistband of his jeans, the gun that was his brother’s gun. He gets on the elevator, seventh floor, stoked. He knows who he’s after. Or does he? As the elevator stops on the sixth floor, on comes Buck. Buck, Will finds out, is who gave Shawn the gun before Will took the gun. Buck tells Will to check that the gun is even loaded. And that’s when Will sees that one bullet is missing. And the only one who could have fired Shawn’s gun was Shawn. Huh. Will didn’t know that Shawn had ever actually USED his gun. Bigger huh. BUCK IS DEAD. But Buck’s in the elevator? Just as Will’s trying to think this through, the door to the next floor opens. A teenage girl gets on, waves away the smoke from Dead Buck’s cigarette. Will doesn’t know her, but she knew him. Knew. When they were eight. And stray bullets had cut through the playground, and Will had tried to cover her, but she was hit anyway, and so what she wants to know, on that fifth floor elevator stop, is, what if Will, Will with the gun shoved in the back waistband of his jeans, MISSES. And so it goes, the whole long way down, as the elevator stops on each floor, and at each stop someone connected to his brother gets on to give Will a piece to a bigger story than the one he thinks he knows. A story that might never know an END…if Will gets off that elevator. Told in short, fierce staccato narrative verse, Long Way Down is a fast and furious, dazzlingly brilliant look at teenage gun violence, as could only be told by Jason Reynolds.
