Description
Born in the Old City of Sana'a, Yemen, Mohammed Al Samawi was a devout Muslim raised to think of Christians and Jews as his enemies. But when Mohammed was twenty-three, he secretly received a copy of the Bible, and became an activist for interfaith dialogue and cooperation.Then came the death threats. Mohammed fled to the southern port city of Aden, which was about to become the heart of a civil war. As gunfire and grenades exploded throughout the city, he hid in the bathroom of his apartment and desperately appealed to his contacts on Facebook.Miraculously, a handful of people he barely knew responded. Over thirteen days, four ordinary young people worked across six technology platforms and ten time zones to save him. The story of an improbable escape as riveting as the best page-turning thrillers, The Fox Hunt reminds us that goodness and decency can triumph in the darkest circumstances.
