The Cost of Knowing by Brittney Morris uses a dash of magic to explore what it means to be a young Black man growing up in modern America. Alex wants nothing more than to protect his family, be a good boyfriend, and do his best at his job in the local ice cream shop. But when he begins having visions of the future, Alex is overwhelmed — until one vision reveals his little brother's death, leading to a race against time to save his brother before it's too late.
