When Miles' cousin Keisha is shot during a concert at the park, Miles starts to worry that it isn't safe anywhere. He daydreams at school and draws scary pictures, he stays away from windows and won't go to the park, even with his friends. Keisha is OK now, and when she's home during a break from college, helps start a community group to help stop gun violence.
