About this audiobook

Inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement, this is a powerful and gripping YA novel about one girl's struggle for justice.

Sixteen-year-old Starr lives in two worlds: the poor neighbourhood where she was born and raised and her posh high school in the suburbs. The uneasy balance between them is shattered when Starr is the only witness to the fatal shooting of her unarmed best friend, Khalil, by a police officer. Now what Starr says could destroy her community. It could also get her killed.

Inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement, this is a powerful and gripping YA novel about one girl's struggle for justice.

Winner of the Waterstones Children's Book Prize 2018 and the Children's Book of the Year 2018 at the British Book Awards.

“Outstanding.” GUARDIAN

“The narration here brings this powerful YA novel, inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement, vividly to life.” LANCASHIRE POST

Through this book you get to see how the level of racism still mounts up and it hurts to know that after all these years of fighting racism 😢 nothing good has come out of the sweat, tears and blood of those who fought it because even to this day and age it still exists.
