About this ebook

They did everything right. They never moved alone but as a group, in broad daylight, on well-traveled routes, not deviating from where they were supposed to be, and yet, within sight of school, and not far away from home, nineteen girls got kidnapped! They had not invited it in any way, they did not bargain for the helpless, hopeless situation in which they found themselves. The question was how much of their previous training they could count on to survive or escape if they ever got the opportunity to do so.

Author

Al Kalima

Al Kalima is the name used by this author who wishes to remain anonymous for now. She tells her stories from experience. Her hope is to entertain her readers, but more than that, also leave them with deeper thoughts about who we are as human beings, what we are doing with our lives, where we are headed, and how we can touch the world for good in our own little ways as we pass through life.
