“The brilliance of this novel is its rendering of African-American child life during the Jim Crow era as a time of wonder and imagination, while also attending to its harsh realities. Absolutely outstanding.“—Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review

―Steve Berry, New York Times Bestselling Author
Read More“Scott Shepherd should be on every reader’s radar in 2013. First with the serialized novel The Seventh Day, and followed by Descending Son, his gifts for storytelling will provide steady rewards. Drawing on diverse influences that range from horror and fantasy to classic noir, Shepherd’s voice is decidedly unique, and while his storytelling may absorb the focus, with his cinematic gifts for action and cliffhangers, it is in his understanding of the human heart that his writing steps forward and shines.“—Michael Koryta, New York Times bestselling author of The Prophet

“An auspicious, gut-wrenching, wonderful debut.”—Kirkus, starred review

Now more than ever.”―Patrisse Cullors, co-founder Black Lives Matter and New York Times bestselling author of When They Call You a Terrorist
