520    Sixteen-year-old Alex Rufus's curse of seeing the future 
       distracts him from being and doing his best, but when he 
       sees his little brother Isaiah's imminent death, he races 
       against time, death, and circumstances to save him. 
520    "Sixteen-year-old Alex Rufus is trying his best. He tries 
       to be the best employee he can be at the local ice cream 
       shop; the best boyfriend he can be to his amazing 
       girlfriend, Talia; the best protector he can be to his 
       little brother, Isaiah. But as much as Alex tries, he 
       often comes up short. It's hard for him to be present when
       every time he touches an object or person, Alex sees into 
       its future. When he touches a scoop, he has a vision of 
       him using it to scoop ice cream. When he touches his car, 
       he sees it years from now, totaled and underwater. When he
       touches Talia, he sees them at the precipice of breaking 
       up, and that terrifies him. Alex feels these visions are a
       curse, distracting him, making him anxious and unable to 
       live an ordinary life. And when Alex touches a photo that 
       gives him a vision of his brother's imminent death, 
       everything changes. With Alex now in a race against time, 
       death, and circumstances, he and Isaiah must grapple with 
       their past, their future, and what it means to be a young 
       Black man in America in the present."--Jacket.
