Jessica Donnelly’s
life is beginning to unravel. When the attorney turned stay-at-home mom
tentatively volunteers to represent Amina Hamid, a woman seeking asylum,
Jessica must learn an unfamiliar area of the law. Soon, rising opposition to
Muslim immigration and unexpected prejudices put her relationships on shaky
ground.
Amina fled Syria with
little more than memories that now fight against the images splashed on the
news. Seeking a secure future and freedom from guilt and grief, she must learn
to trust others amidst the reality of fear and hate.
To find stability, Jessica
and Amina will both need to harness their own strengths, which may lie in
connections that transcend generations, cultures, and continents.
