In the latest paperback edition of the novel, the word "THE" has gone missing. I'm really not sure how that happened! A few years after the book was published a movie of the same name appeared, starring Nicole Kidman, but the movie storyline had nothing in common with my book!
The story is about a young girl who is involved in the kidnap of an American arms-manufacturer in Sarajevo. He is rescued and the girl's relatives are killed - at which point the American decides to adopt her and give her a new life in the United States. Years later, when gangsters threaten the man's business, the girl tries to help him with devastating results.
Truth be told, it was a difficult book to write plot-wise, and I'm still not one hundred per cent happy with it. It's a stand-alone book but I would quite like to revisit the main characters again. We'll see!
