Captive in Kashmir (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781537290843)

Young Londoners Jim Conway and his beautiful girlfriend, Sushma Das, know that their vacation to India will be the trip of a lifetime. What they don't know is that their lives could be in danger.

Jim and Sushma are touring the Taj Mahal when a group of suspected Islamic terrorists attack. In the commotion and the killings, the two are separated, and Jim is rendered unconscious while Sushma is kidnapped.

Her captors introduce themselves as members of Free Kashmir, a freedom-fighting group intent on liberating Kashmir from India. Sushma keeps quiet, realizing these are not freedom fighters but terrorists and gangsters who dress up their violence as acts of protest. The head of the group, Mohammed Zubair Khan, is a dangerous and violent thug. Unfortunately, he has his eye on Sushma.

When she is taken to his mountain stronghold, Khan declares his intention to take her as his third wife and is intent on forcibly having her converted to Islam. Sushma must survive under the supervision of Khan's two other wives and find a way to escape. Meanwhile, Jim runs into his own obstacles as he tries to enlist the Indian police force's help in finding his missing girlfriend. Neither know who they can trust in this taut thriller.
