About the book
She wasn't an ordinary supplicant. She didn't lower her eyes. There was nothing humble about her bearing. She spoke frankly, looking straight ahead, as if to claim what was rightfully hers. "If you don't agree to look at our case, my parents and I will be lost, and it will be the most hateful legal error."
