Kristion Rose Is Not Okay

Kristion Rose was not okay.

Not “my life is a little off-track” not okay. “Cursed out a goat, barefoot, in front of his dead grandmother’s church” not okay.

He flew to Jamaica to bury an aunt, settle the affairs of a father he hadn’t spoken to in fifteen years, and be back in Brooklyn before his therapist noticed he was gone. Two weeks, tops. But the land, the tapes his father left behind, and the family he’s been outrunning have other plans.

Kristion Rose Is Not Okay is a family saga set between Brooklyn and the hills of St. Thomas — where the laugh and the ache meet.
