When a young mother marries a former diplomat and moves to Saudi Arabia, she never imagined that her world and the future of her child would be so tragically and forever altered. The idyllic life that she dreamed of comes to an abrupt end with the revelation that her new husband is, in fact, the head of a banned political organisation in direct conflict with the ruling Al-Saud regime. What follows is a true account of political unrest in the Kingdom: arrest, torture, intrigue and ultimately heartbreak, set within the everyday existence in Saudi Arabia. The Littlest Hostage is a book that will take you into the world of family life inside the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, as well as give an insight into the political and human rights abuses suffered by citizens and expatriates alike.
