Heart-wrenching true story of abducted children's recovery

In the spring of 1990, life was bright with promise for Jessica Doyle. She had legal custody of her two children, and a warm, supportive new relationship that was helping her forget the turbulent years of an abusive marriage. Then one sunny April morning, her world was shattered. She was told that her former husband had taken the children to Iran, and she was also told that she would never get them back! Desperate to recover her young son and daughter, Jessica gets no help from police, Interpol, the State Department ... and is plunged into the subterranean world of soldiers of fortune, ex-spies, private eyes, commandos, and crazies. At last, thrown back on her own resources, this determined and courageous mother puts together a unique plan, risking her own life and liberty to save her children. From her first encounters with the man who would betray and abuse her through her experiences as an American woman in a Muslim country to her remarkable rescue of her children half a world away, against all odds, Jessica Doyle's story is riveting and inspirational-a story you will never forget.
