About this title

Synopsis:

Although the eldest of the hostages in Beirut, Jackie Mann spent the whole two-and-a-half years of his captivity in solitary confinement, while his wife lived alone in Beirut and fought for his release. In this book, they both describe the worst moments, the exhilaration of their eventual reunion, Jackie's recuperation at RAF Lyneham and the couple's new life in Cyprus.
