Seventeen-year-old Pakistani immigrant, Zara Hossain, has been leading a fairly typical life in Texas since her family moved there for her father's work.

As an act of revengeagainst her for speaking out, Tyler and his friends vandalize Zara's house with racist graffiti, leading to a violent crime that puts Zara's entire future at risk. Now she must pay the ultimate priceand choose between fighting to stay in the only place she's ever called home or losingthe life she loves and everyone in it.
