To Be Free Naomi Jewell

Lukewarm isn't a problem, right? Wrong. But that is something Nillah Clark would rather not have to learn the hard way - or any way, for that matter. She's too busy trying to figure out why nothing seems to be working out for her. Nillah's perfect plans for a vacation in India crash-land along with her plane - in Saudi Arabia, of all places. But what she discovers in that strange country ends up pushing her closer to the truth about herself - and God - than she is comfortable with. One day . . . That seems to be the start of all Leila Nejem's sentences nowadays. All she has ever really wanted is for her family to be safe - and together. But as a refugee and illegal immigrant in Saudi Arabia, that is a dream that will probably never be realized, unless Leila's black-sheep uncle can have his way. When he pulls Leila into a terrorist plot to take over Israel, she begins to realize that the stakes here are higher than she ever imagined.
