About this listen

Now a major motion picture starring Angelina Jolie!

The unforgettable story of two journalists who fell in love with their work and with each other, a portrait of a partnership built on the ideals of love, truth, and justice—and a critical look at the methods and structure of the Al-Qaeda network.

For five weeks, the world waited for news about Danny Pearl, the Wall Street Journal reporter who was kidnapped in Karachi, Pakistan—and then came the broadcast of his shocking murder. The complete account of his abduction, the intense effort to rescue him, and the aftermath are told here in astonishing detail and with courage and insight by his surviving wife, Mariane.

Together, Mariane and Danny Pearl traveled across the globe, dedicated to journalism that increases the understanding of international politics and ethnic and religious conflict. In the end, Danny was caught in the dangerous fissure where warring cultures, politics, and ideologies collide.©2003 Mariane Pearl. All rights reserved; (P)2003 Simon and Schuster Inc.
