A bulletproof teenager in Jim Crow-era Alabama
Set in 1930s America, the story places Mo Crawford—a fifteen-year-old from Tuskegee, Alabama, who is nearly seven feet tall and impervious to bullets—amid the dangers Black people face under Jim Crow. Mo’s extraordinary protection stands in sharp contrast to his own ambitions: he would rather farm than become anyone’s savior. The premise brings alternative-history fiction together with questions of racial injustice, power, and what responsibility might mean when one person has an unusual capacity to survive.
