A powerful and thought-provoking YA debut from New York Times best-selling publisher Laura Moriarty. Imagine a USA in which registries and detainment camps for Muslim-Americans are a reality. Fifteen-year-old Sarah-Mary Williams of Hannibal, Missouri, lives in this world, and though she's strong views on almost everything, she isn't worried about the internments because she doesn't know any Muslims. She assumes that everything she reads and recognizes in the news headlines holds true and these programs are better for everyone's basic safety. However when she happens after Sadaf, a Muslim fugitive determined to reach freedom in Canada, Sarah-Mary initially believes she must change her in. But Sadaf troubles Sarah-Mary's perceptions of right and wrong, and instead Sarah-Mary decides, with growing conviction, to do all she can to help Sadaf escape. The two tripped on a needy trip, hitchhiking through the heart and soul of any America that reaches times courageous and kind but always filled with tension and risk for anyone considered suspicious.
