All is going well for Betty Mahmoody - she has a loving husband, a beautiful daughter, and her husband is also a doctor in the U.S. - that is, until 'Moody' announces a two-week trip to Iran to visit his family.
Arriving in Iran, she realises that Moody plans on staying there forever. In a country where women have to wear chador even on the hottest day; where innocent children are carried off to the mining grounds to work, never to return again; and worst of all, where a wife has no option but to obey her husband everytime, everywhere.
So how will Betty escape, along with her daughter Martha, when they have no passports, no money, and no telephone to use? (And to top it all, no family member helps them at all.)
