A totally enthralling read. The Rwandan Hostage is the sort of book you could so easily become absorbed in. This book is skilfully written, and I like Christopher Lowery’s, fluid and easy writing style. It’s hard to imagine a mother’s pain in losing her son. Initially Emma thought her son must have wondered off while they were at the Soccer world cup. Her nightmare has only just begun when she is shown footage of him being wheeled out of the stadium unconscious. Being kidnapped in Africa is not a place you want to go missing, and this is just the start of her nightmare in getting him back. The Author has done a great job of not only putting together a very interesting story, but also highlighting that there are other parts of the world that have such atrocities happening on our back door step. This is a very hard book to put down, and I would certainly recommend it.
