Meg Powers is the daughter of the President of the United States. She’s about to enter her first year of college. She’s living through the worst year of her life. In June, Meg was kidnapped by terrorists—brutalized, starved, and left for dead. She was shackled in a deserted mine shaft and had to smash the bones in her own hand to escape.

In a brilliant tour de force, Ellen Emerson White tells her most ambitious and intense story about a most unlikely, but deeply affecting heroine.
