Opis

In a room with no windows on the eastern coast of Africa, an Englishman, James More, is held captive by jihadist fighters. Posing as a water engineer to spy on al-Quaeda activity in the area, he now faces extreme privation, mock executions and forced marches through arid Somali badlands.

Recenzje

An ambitious narrative that is stark, serene and contemplative...[it] achieves the ultimate goal of any writer: it makes us pause and think, and think again Irish Times
