Clue, an exiled hypnotist from outer space, is in dire need to get back to her interstellar planet, Nubia, to rescue her parents from the insidious brainwashing agents: The Screens. Clue's obstacle...she's stuck on earth. Will Clue be tried and tested by the prim and proper boarding school, the School of the Unknown, or will earth's killer simulators get the best of Clue?

From acclaimed author Patricia Hruby Powell comes the story of a landmark civil rights case, told in spare and gorgeous verse. In 1955, in Caroline County, Virginia, amidst segregation and prejudice, injustice and cruelty, two teenagers fell in love. Their life together broke the law, but their determination would change it. Richard and Mildred Loving were at the heart of a Supreme Court case that legalized marriage between races, and a story of the devoted couple who faced discrimination, fought it, and won.
