I went through so many emotions while listening to this book. It broke my heart, it made me angry, it made me cry. This is a work of fiction based on the horrifying American era of Jim Crow Laws. Even though the story is fiction, the story itself is something that could have happened (and most likely has happened within America’s prison system).
Graphic: Racism, Police brutality, Slavery, Murder, Racial slurs, and Violence
Moderate: Sexual assault
