The second book in the hit Young Prince series from Ronald L. Smith, recipient of the 2016 Coretta Scott King/John Steptoe New Talent Author Award. I´m T´Challa. The Prince of Wakanda. Son of T´Chaka. And one day, I will wear the mantle. Thirteen-year-old T´Challa can´t wait to go back to America to visit his friends Sheila and Zeke, who are staying with Sheila´s grandmother in Beaumont, a small Alabama town, over their summer break. He´s thrilled to be on vacation away from his duties as the Prince of Wakanda for a few weeks, and he´s taking full advantage of his access to the amazing food and the South´s rich history. But as T´Challa continues to explore the town, he finds that a man who goes by the ordinary name of Bob happens to be everywhere he is--and T´Challa begins to think it´s no coincidence. When residents of the town begin flocking to Bob´s strange message, and a prominent citizen disappears, the Young Prince has no choice but to intervene. T´Challa and his friends start to do their own sleuthing, and before long, the three teens find themselves caught in a plot involving a rare ancient book and a man who´s not as he seems. Swept up in a fight against an unexpected and evil villain, T´Challa, Sheila, and Zeke must band together to save the people of Beaumont . . . before it´s too late.
