When fourteen-year-old Jada wakes up in a hospital, the last thing she thinks is that her life has completely changed forever. But when the very real civil war forces her to flee from every open space, she must use the firearm skills her father taught her to reunite with him and protect herself.

Armed with a single gun and a key to an unknown locker, Jada crosses Syria on a journey with a group of children called the Fearless Freedom Fighters.

With the leader, Zak, they mount a plan to rescue their fathers while they try to cope with the merciless murders of their families. As Jada and Zak lead the group together, love blossoms, but with soldiers hot on their tail, they need to stay vigilant in the face of war.

Quote

 
A thunderous boom echoes down the hallway. Bone-chilling screams follow the sound of terror. I have a lump in my throat. Oh, shit they’re here, why would they come here? The unthinkable is happening - they’re attacking my school. The thunderous barrage of shots continues as they move down the halls.
