The Imam’s Daughter
Hannah Shah
Hardcover, 288 pp., $19.99
Zondervan (May 4, 2010)

The Imam's Daughter
Hannah Shah is an Imam’s daughter. A devout Muslim in England, for years her father abused her. At 16, she ran away to avoid an arranged marriage in Pakistan. Relentlessly hunted by her angry father and brothers, intent on an ‘honor’ killing, she moved from house to house in perpetual fear. Over time, she converted to Christianity and was able to live and marry as she wished. Hannah found the courage to live free from shame, religious intolerance, and the abuse that haunted her childhood. This is a remarkable true story of how a young girl escaped a life of torture.

Tony Dungy

Tyndale House Publishers, Inc. (May 7, 2008)

Tony Dungy’s words and example have intrigued millions of people.

How is it possible for anyone to be successful without compromising faith and family? In this inspiring and reflective memoir, now updated with a new chapter, Coach Dungy tells the story of a life lived for God and family–and challenges us all to redefine our ideas of what it means to succeed.
