A taut, haunting tragedy. "KirkusReviews"
One young man searches for a place to call home in this gut-wrenching, honest novel from "New York Times "bestselling author Wes Moore and cowriter Shawn Goodman.
Elijah Thomas knows one thing better than anyone around him: basketball. But when a sinister street gang, Blood Street Nation, wants him and his team members to wear the Nation s colors in the next big tournament, Elijah s love of the game is soon thrown into jeopardy.
The boys gather their courage and take a stand against the gang, but at a terrible cost. Now Elijah must struggle to balance hope and fear, revenge and forgiveness, to save his neighborhood. For help, he turns to the most unlikely of friends: Banks, a gruff ex military man, and his beautiful and ambitious daughter. Together, the three work on a plan to destroy Blood Street and rebuild the community they all call home.
"This Way Home" is a story about reclamation. It s about taking a stand for what matters most, and the discovery that, in the end, hope, love, and courage are our most powerful weapons.
