Description

At twenty Anna married an ambitious computer scientist. Now twelve years later they have three young daughters. Yet something vital is missing. He is more away than at home and she dreams of an equal love. But she dreads the price of breaking free. Within a year the marriage shatters and her children are abducted overseas. In the vengeful shadow of their father’s blame how can she nurture and protect those who were the crown and comfort of her life? The true-life story of a desperate choice and its heart-breaking yet redemptive consequences for Anna and her daughters.
