During the summer of 2006, Melissa Hawach lived through every mother's nightmare: her daughters, six-year-old Hannah and three-year-old Cedar, were kidnapped by their father and swept away to Lebanon in a desperate attempt to force a custody agreement. In this brave and gripping true-life account, Hawach narrates the extraordinary details of the kidnapping and the remarkable lengths to which she went in order to get her daughters back. From her home-turned-command-post in Calgary, to Sydney, Australia, to dangerous Hezbollah territory in Lebanon, Hawach and her hired security team plotted a reclamation strategy that relied on stop-watch execution, incredible amounts of cash-and luck. Flight of the Dragonfly is a book written with courage and candour, bravery and passion. It will resonate with any parent who has lost a child-if only for a moment. | FLIGHT OF THE DRAGONFLY by Melissa Hawach, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
