Gered!

by Jessica Doyle, Carolyn Nichols

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.
"Iraj has taken the children to Iran. You'll 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.

Engaging from beginning to end, a fantastic story...there’s no way this book should be this good, but it is!

I was a nervous wreck all the way through this story! I was really drawn into her plight and was jumping for joy once Jessica and her children were safely reunited.

Didn't read it word for word. Not sure why. Didn't have patience to find out how things turned out? I read the part of the re-kidnapping completely, though.
