”This gripping book tells a true story of hostage–taking and murder, told first–hand by those who experienced it. It is also the story of how three hostages found God’s perspective in a time of great trial from a Bible which they had with them in captivity. I found the book both humbling and a great challenge to complacency.“Alasdair Paine”David and Shirley Donovan were willing to risk personal comfort and security in obedience to Christ. This book is their testimony to God’s goodness in sustaining them through an ordeal of pain, terror, and uncertainty.“Sharon James”I finished the book praising God for their courage, and even more, for His all–sufficient grace in our Lord Jesus Christ.“Charles M. Wingard”This testimony of God’s presence in the trial and the lessons learned will encourage and challenge every reader.“Peter Maiden
