Описание: Ever since he was little, Jake Green has longed to be a soldier and a hero like his grandpa, who died serving his country. Right now, though, he just wants to outsmartand outrunthe rival cross country team, the Palmetto Bugs. But then the tragedy of September 11 happens. It s quickly discovered that one of the hijackers lived nearby, making Jake s Florida town an FBI hot spot. Two days later, the tragedy becomes even more personal when Jake s best friend, Sam Madina, is pummeled for being an Arab Muslim by their bully classmate, Bobby.
According to Jake s personal code of conduct, anyone who beats up your best friend is due for a butt kicking, and so Jake goes after Bobby. But soon after, Sam s father is detained by the FBI, and Jake s mom doubts the innocence of Sam s family, forcing Jake to choose between his best friend and his parents. When Jake finds out that Sam s been keeping secrets, too, he doesn t know who his allies are anymore. In the end, Jake must decide: either walk away from Sam and the revenge that Bobby has planned, or become the hero he s always aspired to be.
