Woman alone

"Contrary to the romantic tales of the Arabian Nights, Dannelene Noach experienced an Arabian nightmare when a faction inside Saudi Arabia abducted and incarcerated her in the notorious Al Ha\2019ir jail. In this book we are given an inkling of how thousands of Saudi women live, as they have no voice to plead their case. Dannelene developed a deep sense of outrage while she was working as nursing co-ordinator in one of the large, modern hospitals in Riyadh. There she became acquainted with the anguish of hundreds of women who are merely considered as goods and chattels, with no regard for their human dignity. Though it rankled, she kept quiet because she did not want to get involved in another country\2019s customs. Her own situation changed when she was maliciously accused of sorcery, which is a capital offence in Saudi Arabia. In these circumstances this tiny woman proved that her deeply religious upbringing and deep faith could withstand many different kinds of torment. Woman Alone takes the reader on a journey through suffering and hardship, but beneath the surface Dannelene's feisty personality kept her from being engulfed. We learn of the value of friendship in difficult circumstances and the persevering love of family. Dannelene Noach proved that one woman can survive alone"--Cover.
