This sequel to "Not Without My Daughter" takes up the story at the American Embassy in Turkey. Mahmoody describes the readjustment to America, her constant fear of her husband's lethal revenge and her ultimate frustration with the American legal system's inability, or unwillingness, to offer her and her daughter protection. This book is not Betty's story alone. Since arriving in America she has met countless mothers with similarly harrowing experiences and has fought their cause as well.
