On New Year's Eve 2012 after days covering the conflict in Syria, embedded with the rebel Free Syrian Army in Aleppo, rookie American photojournalist Matthew Schrier decides he has ridden his luck for long enough. But on his way back to safety his taxi is forced to a stop by armed militia of the Al Nusra Front - the Syrian Al Qaeda, and he's taken hostage. For seven agonising months Matthew is beaten, tortured and accused of being a CIA spy; but when the opportunity to escape arises he is forced to face his toughest test yet - save himself or stay with his fellow American prisoner.
