When Bijan Darya's family and village discovered his secret, his only option was to leave Iraq. He's used every cent he had to reach America, but he’s determined to get where he’s going, no matter how scared he is. He appreciates Atlas offering him a place to stay, but he’s forgotten how to trust anyone, much less a figure of authority like Atlas.
Slowly, Atlas—and Evie, mostly Evie—begin to win him over, leaving Bijan even more confused by his developing feelings for Atlas. They circle each other, each reluctant to make the first move. Just when they might be on the same track and close to catching the traffickers, government red tape threatens to separate them forever.
