But when a Facebook message about her estranged mother pierces Yaminah’s new bubble, memories of everything that happened before her parents’ divorce come roaring back-and Yaminah must finally reckon with the truth about her mother and the looming collapse of a place she once called home. She thinks she has finally left behind that city she would rather forget. She and her father have made lives for themselves in Brooklyn, and she thinks she has moved on to bigger and better things. Yaminah Okar left Obsidian and the wreckage of her family years ago.
