Well-written book about the life of hostages in the jungles of the Philippines. This book provides in-depth knowledge of the Abu Sayyaf Group and their religious beliefs and continued strife with the Philippine government. Good intel read. Many religious undertones (the Burnham's were missionaries), but they are incorporated into the book very well. Also recommend "13 Days of Terror" by Greg Williams, describing his days with the same group only a few years earlier.
