Description

When Jason learns that his Afghan mother has been living illegally in the United States since his father was killed in Afghanistan, his sense of safety shatters—especially after she’s taken away and he’s left to face the city alone. In the wake of an accident that lands him in the hospital, Jason forms an unexpected bond with Max, a sharp, restless girl determined to see the world on her own terms. Together, they navigate fear, uncertainty, and the thin line between survival and freedom as they plot an escape into New York’s towering streets. Blending urgency with tenderness, the novel explores belonging, family, and the resilience it takes to keep hope alive when the future feels out of reach.
