Publisher's Synopsis
This is a very interesting story. As they say, truth is stranger than fiction, and in this case, I believe it's true.
The author, an American married to an Iranian, had been working and living as an ordinary member of Iranian society for almost 4 years when she had heard rumors that the U.S. was going to be attacked. That was on September 9, 2001. She tried and failed to call home and give warning.
