Does a person decide how to live, or is their life decided for them ? Fourteen-year-old Alireza Courdee is used to living in two worlds. He is a straight-A student and an affable stoner ; the high- achieving son of Iranian immigrants, and a Californian surf kid ; Alireza, and just plain Rez. But when a terror incident shocks the nation - and then another, and another - Rez finds that the world has only one idea about the type of person he is ; that his name and the colour of his skin make him an object of suspicion.
But there are new friends to shine a light into Rez's isolated, angry existence : Arash, a fellow Muslim student, and the beautiful Fatima. Little by little, Rez is drawn into a new circle, a circle as troubling as it is consoling - with a grim and glorious mission in mind for him.
