The narrative follows Najeeb Muhammad, a young man from Kerala who migrates to Saudi Arabia in the early 1990s seeking a better life for his pregnant wife and family. His dreams are instantly shattered upon arrival when he is abducted by a desert local and forced into slave labor as a goatherd in a remote, desolate part of the desert. For over three years, Najeeb endures:
His escape was a journey through hell itself. Without a map, without enough water, and pursued by the constant terror of being caught, he walked. He walked until his feet were raw, until his vision failed, and until he was nothing more than a skeleton wrapped in sun-scorched skin.
