Even within his family, Trelawny is an outsider. He is the only one born in Miami. His parents, Topper and Sanya, as well as his brother Delano, fled the violence in Jamaica here. The United States never really became a home for them. They are all fighting to somehow get their foot on the ground - against exclusion and poverty, against homelessness and racism. And secretly, Trelawny knows that if anything, only he has a chance at a better life. To a life in a society that makes things incredibly difficult for him and his family.

'A commanding debut from a talent to watch'
