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.
