From the Back Cover
This book is about a girl who wants to make her adored papa proud of her, and her white classmates notice her 'Magic Mind, ' not her black skin by winning the Bible-quoting contest. But winning does not bring Lena what she expected. Instead of honor, violence and death erupt and strike the one she loves most dearly. Lena, who has believed in vengeance, must learn how to forgive.
