Ghost-catching proves easier, at least initially, than the daily grind confronted by Robert’s school friends and foes, all of whom have their own tragic back stories. “You’re not the only one in trouble,” the ghost of a slaughtered young Black man reminds him. This concentrated attention sharpens the suspense; we’re tightly focused on the questions: Will Robert survive, and if so, what will it take? His transformation tracks the novel’s own capacity to be, at once, a supernatural historical novel and a straight-up page-turner.

The things that parents say to their kids can either encourage and give them confidence, or lower their self-esteem and hold them back in life. As I researched and wrote my book, "Raising an Entrepreneur," I talked to 70 parents who raised highly successful adults about how they helped their kids achieve their dreams. These parents were the opposite of "helicopter" parents (a.k.a. “My parents weren’t angry, they just told me I had to put them all back," he said. We fail, we try and try again, we fail, we try and try and try."
