His world takes an unexpected turn when he accidentally punches a hole into a magical realm filled with African American folklore. As he encounters legendary figures like the trickster Anansi and the giant Gum Baby, Tristan must navigate this vibrant world, face formidable foes, and come to terms with his grief.
