By the age of sixteen, Corey is sentenced to prison. <br> Incarcerated at Riker's Island, Corey lives through experiences that threaten to destroy his body, his mind, and his spirit. Still, in the midst of his horrific imprisonment, he discovers inner strength and -- against unimaginable odds -- manages to survive. Corey makes a new kind of family for himself in jail, including a teacher who encourages him to never go home again. In the course of his journey of self-discovery, Corey comes to realize the wisdom in his mentor's words. <br> Unflinching and riveting, <i>Never Go Home Again</i> is a powerful, true-to-life story of redemption that no reader will soon forget.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Shannon Holmes</b>, author of <i>B-More Careful</i> and <i>Bad Girlz, </i> is copublisher, with Vickie Stringer, of Triple Crown Publications
