One frosty day in the winter of 1975, an Afghan boy named Amir witnesses a horrific act. This event changes his life and the fate of his close friend Hassan forever. But it's not just what he saw, it's also the fact that Amir didn't intervene, didn't do anything, and stood by. Cowardice, even apostasy, will haunt him throughout his life, first in Afghanistan, then in America, until Amir gathers the courage to challenge all his inner demons and finds a way to be good again.
