It was just a hoverboard. Nobody was supposed to die.
Dale Adams has worked hard to leave his troubled past behind for a brighter future at Emory University. But when he makes a discovery that will change humanity forever, avoiding the spotlight becomes the least of his concerns. Small experiments have attracted big attention. And not all who notice want Dale to be successful. Or even alive. As Dale's world collapses around him, his fate intertwines with that of a girl he hardly knows. Their only hope for survival is to disappear into Atlanta's seedy underbelly, the very place Dale has tried so hard to leave behind. Time is running out, but if they can survive long enough science will be rewritten by the most unlikely of authors. ____________________ ❝ ...grabs you by the throat early on and doesn't let go! ❞ ~ Al Letson, Host of Reveal on NPR

The blurb for this book led me to believe it was a YA sci-fi novel based on the trope of anti-gravity - and it is. Nevertheless, I decided to read it because the pen name of the author is derived from a story that I enjoyed in my youth. The author kept my interest despite the impossibility of the science.
