Inhaltsangabe
Muslim, Anwalt, Soldat, Geisel Als Tochter eines indischen muslimischen Vaters und einer weißen australischen Mutter, die im konservativen Umfeld von Perth der 1970er Jahre aufwuchs, wurde Rabia Siddique immer als anders gekennzeichnet. Rabia entflieht ihrer traumatischen Kindheit und zog nach ihrem Abschluss an der juristischen Fakultät nach London, um ihrem leidenschaftlichen Engagement für soziale Gerechtigkeit nachzugehen. Sie trat nur wenige Tage nach dem 11. September der britischen Armee als Militäranwältin bei und fand sich schließlich im Südirak stationiert, wo sie sich dazu drängte, in einer der gefährlichsten und testendsten Umgebungen der Erde einen Unterschied zu machen. Am 19. September 2005 wurden Rabia und ein weiterer Soldat von islamischen Aufständischen als Geiseln genommen, als sie versuchten, die Freilassung zweier entführter britischer SAS-Agenten zu verhandeln. Sie kämpfte stundenlang, um ihr Leben zu retten, und nutzte ihre juristische Expertise, ihr Wissen über Islam und Arabisch, um mit ihren Gefangenen zu verhandeln, als ein gewaltsamer Mob versuchte, das Gelände zu stürmen, auf dem sie gehalten wurde. Nach ihrer Freilassung erhielt ihre Kollegin ein Militärkreuz, während Rabia nichts erhielt. Ihr anschließender Fall der Sex- und Rassendiskriminierung gegen die britische Armee machte weltweit Schlagzeilen. Ihre Memoiren sind eine Geschichte von Körnung, Mut und Überzeugung, die aus einer einzigartigen Perspektive entstanden ist.
