Before she was the "Queen of the Heights," draped in floor-length chinchilla and cold diamonds, she was just Aura Rose Grant-a senior at A. Philip Randolph High with a GPA as sharp as her tongue and a habit of chewing on her No. 2 pencils until they splintered. The year is 2012. The air in Harlem smells of exhaust, street-corner souvlaki, and the impending summer heat. Aura doesn't spend her nights counting stacks of "dirty" laundry in a penthouse; she spends them in the dim light of her grandmother's kitchen, hunched over a cracked dining table. The story follows Aura during the final, sweltering stretch of her senior year. While her classmates are fixated on the Senior Spring Formal and who's dating whom, Aura is navigating the subtle, heavy pressures of a neighborhood that feels like it's shrinking. She's balancing the expectations of her grandmother, who sees her as the family's "way out," and the magnetic pull of the streets she calls home.
