Rookie FBI agent Russell Boyd and Arabic interpreter Nawar Abboud have reasons for avoiding the Middle East, but that's exactly where they're going. A teenage girl has fallen to her death from an elegant condominium in Seattle, leaving behind nothing to identify her except a pair of earrings. The jewelry connects her to Za'atari Camp, a city of Syrian refugees in the northern desert of Jordan. Boyd and Abboud's assignment: Find out how this unknown and trafficked girl got from there to here.
While Boyd and Abboud search for clues in Za'atari, at another part of the camp fourteen-year-old Lely Khayat receives a visitor who promises a better life in America. Adventurous and artistic, Lely cannot identify with the words orphan and refugee, but each day she wakes up as a guest in another family's shelter. She decides to go.
The chase is on-Boyd and Abboud pursue murderous traffickers to rescue a girl who has no idea what will be expected of her in America.
Rick George is a master of the page-turner.
