e can outrun anyone alive... except his own impatience.
Twelve-year-old Jermell "Rocket" Watkins has the fastest start in the city, when he actually waits for the starter's pistol. But one twitch too early, and a false start leaves him disqualified, benched, and stripped of his anchor spot on the Kingsbridge Comets track relay team.
With a talented new runner from Atlanta shaking up the team, looming pressure from powerhouse rivals, and a high-stakes Tri-County Championship on the line, Jermell has to learn that true speed isn't about guessing the sound, it's about listening to the quiet.
Joined by his cousin Jamir, Malik, Maurice, Josiah, James, Rocky, and Wasani, Jermell must master the discipline of the blocks before a dropped baton costs the Comets everything.
Sometimes to win the race, you have to learn how to hold still.
