‘England- she has moved 19 times over 5 years, steps outside her home checking the street for strange cars. Once back places a knife within quick reach. The British –born daughter of Pakistani immigrants, is under death threat from her own father and brother. They have vowed to find her and murder her, for refusing an arranged marriage’
Warren Hoge, The New York Times INTERNATIONAL

‘Compelling, horrifying reading’
The Times

‘British MP Ann Cryer Feb 1999 in the House of Commons raised the case of Zena Briggs. Ann Cryer said, “to this day, a death sentence is hanging over them and through the years this otherwise decent Asian family have employed private detectives, bounty hunter, and hired a hit man to seek out their once much loved daughter for the purpose of killing her’

‘An incredible and humbling real-life story’
Yorkshire Evening Post

‘This is a precedent-setting case and anything that can help Jack and Zena could be of benefit to other couples in a similar situation’
MP Ann Cryer, Telegraph and Argus

‘A fascinating, sad and alarming read’
Fay Weldon

‘This book should be read by every policeman, social worker, lawyer and doctor in the country, as well as by anyone who wants to know about modern Britain’
Sunday Telegraph

‘An illuminating insight into what being disposed person means, and a chilling account of how far domestic terrorism functions with a society that believes individual freedom is sacred’ Guardian

‘The narration is breathless alternation between Jack and Zena, forcing the reader to share in their fear and frustration’
Nick Simpson, City Life

‘Hunted by their families, kidnapped, stalked, and sometimes killed. In Britain, daughters of South Asian immigrants who defy their parents desire for arranged marriages risk losing their parents love-as well as their own lives’
Marie Claire, American Edition

‘Gives an intimate account of their struggle to cut across Britain’s barriers of race and religion, and lays bare the cultural taboos and tradition. But most importantly, Zena’s story signals the emergence of a new and more assertive British Asian woman. By discarding the veil of secrecy that has long shrouded the lives of Britain’s young Asian women’
