The Fox Hunt - Mohammed Al Samawi - Bog

Born in the Old City of Sana'a, Yemen, Mohammed Al Samawi was raised a devout Muslim and taught to think of Christians and Jews as his enemies. But when Mohammed secretly received a copy of the Bible, what he read cast doubt on everything he'd previously believed. After connecting with Jews and Christians on social media and at international interfaith conferences, Mohammed became an activist, making it his mission to promote dialogue and cooperation in Yemen.Then came the death threats: first on Facebook, then through terrifying anonymous phone calls. To protect himself and his family, Mohammed fled to the southern port city of Aden. Yet his new home was about to become the heart of a brutal north-south civil war that has turned Yemen into one of the twenty-first century's worst humanitarian crises. As gunfire and grenades exploded outside his window, Mohammed hid in the bathroom of his apartment and desperately appealed to his contacts on Facebook.Remarkably, a handful of people he barely knew responded. Over thirteen days, four ordinary young people with zero experience in diplomacy or military exfiltration worked across six technology platforms and ten time zones to save this innocent young man trapped between deadly forces. A thrilling page-turner that deeply affirms the human spirit, The Fox Hunt reminds us that goodness can triumph even in the darkest circumstances.
