This is an excellent young adult book which shows exactly what it's like to be a teenager. Ghost (real name Castle Cranshaw) has been chosen for an elite middle school track team - a team that could qualify them for the Junior Olympics if they can get their acts together. They all have a lot to lose, but they also have a lot to prove, not only to each other, but to themselves. Can Ghost harness his raw talent for speed, or will his past finally catch up to him? Beautiful and powerful story for all ages. Author's writing is genuine and raw. Cliffhanger at the end drove me crazy!
