Miles and Roland finally make it back to Harlem. During their trip, though they aren't able to find Never Die, the ring, or Yusef, they meet new friends, as well as ominous characters-some of which they will again encounter in the future. Miles gains a better understanding of jazz and the musicians who perform it. At his uncle's insistence, he visits and interviews at some colleges, opening the door to further learning and exploration. As a bonus, while visiting the Crossroads of the Mississippi Delta, Miles gets a chance to experience a mystery for which the area is famous.
