Under Their Claws: A Testimony of My Kidnapping

Drugged and packed into a waiting vehicle... saddled to a one eyed horse that carried her into the cold regions of the Colombian moors...surrounded constantly by armed captors and not knowing if she would ever return to loved ones and civilization.....this is Myriam Nortons true story of survival under the claws of the Colombian FARC terrorists. Her detailed account sheds light on a gruesome reality that many thousands of Colombians have suffered, many never to return. Myriams portrayal of her struggle to stay alive, her sharp wit and vivid descriptions of the other hostages, her captors and the negotiation process reveal facts that have never been told. She recreates an unforgettable scenario that transports the reader to a place where life is worth very little, and survival is not guaranteed."
