Inhalt:
THIS IS A TRUE STORY.
An author goes on a book tour for his new bestseller Hell of a Book - which, as people keep telling him, is one hell of a book.

THIS IS A COMING-OF-AGE STORY.
One morning, he meets The Kid - a young Black boy who looks just like the one on the news who was shot by the police. And The Kid wants him to tell his story.

THIS IS A SAD STORY.
It's the story of a boy who spent most of his life trying to hide, and to not be seen. And it may not be that different from the story of our author.

THIS IS A LOVE STORY.
But to find out why, you'll have to read it for yourself.
