"In October 2008, Melissa Fung, a long-time journalist for CBC's The National, was reporting on the effects of the war in Afghanistan on the local population. As she was leaving a refugee camp outside of Kabul, she was grabbed by armed men claiming to be Taliban, stabbed, stuffed into the back of a car and driven off into the desert...Under an Afghan sky is the gripping tale of Fung's days in captivity...It is a powerful book about survival and the indomitable spirit of one woman in the most perilous of circumstances"--P. [2] of cover.
