On the streets of Detroit's East Side, fifteen-year-old Jaden Carter believes he's unstoppable. Growing up on Fleming Street, he idolizes the flashy, reckless lives of toxic rappers, chasing admiration from peers and proving his toughness to the neighborhood. But rebellion comes with a price.

From skipping school and experimenting with cigarettes, alcohol, and weed to hiding a gun in his room, Jaden spirals further into danger. His mother, a devoted barber; his father, a retired Army veteran; his sister, a nurse; and his brother, a real estate investor, all warn him-but he refuses to listen. The thrill of peer validation blinds him to the reality of the consequences until the law catches up with him.
