Scapegoat The Hounded
Injustice Hounds Them. Truth Binds Them...
In 2006 seventeen-year-old Xander (Alexander Evans-Lloyd) is the sole known survivor of an attack on the hospital and school in western Pakistan where Xander's parents and their friends worked.
After his recovery, Xander moves to Portland, Oregon to live with his grandfather. Xander has lost everyone and is reluctant to seek new friends. However, Haroon Qubadi, with his humor and his love of soccer, pulls Xander back into life. Xander's grandfather, Gilbert Evans, coaches their soccer team with Haroon's Kurdish-American father, Nasdar.
But when FBI agent, Guy Saurus, arrests Haroon's father and accuses him of supporting terrorism, any who defend the Qubadi family are endangered.
Xander, Grandfather Gilbert, Haroon, and their friends struggle to prove Nasdar's innocence. They grapple with enormous forces of public fear fanned by headline-hungry media and by Agent Saurus's determination to make a name for himself as a terrorist fighter.
