520    "Ray McMillian loves playing the violin more than anything,
       and nothing will stop him from pursuing his dream of 
       becoming a professional musician. Not his mother, who 
       thinks he should get a real job, not the fact that he 
       can't afford a high-caliber violin, not the racism 
       inherent in the classical music world. And when he makes 
       the startling discovery that his great-grandfather's 
       fiddle is actually a priceless Stradivarius, his star 
       begins to rise. Then with the international Tchaikovsky 
       Competition-the Olympics of classical music-fast 
       approaching, his prized family heirloom is stolen. Ray is 
       determined to get it back. But now his family and the 
       descendants of the man who once enslaved Ray's great-
       grandfather are each claiming that the violin belongs to 
       them. With the odds stacked against him and the pressure 
       mounting, will Ray ever see his beloved violin again?"--
