Escape from the 38th (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798182096836)

SOME BORDERS ARE DRAWN ON MAPS.

OTHERS ARE CARVED INTO THE SOUL.

When Ji-Ah Kim escaped North Korea as a child, she left behind more than a country she left behind her twin sister.

For thirteen years, she has built a new life in America.

A quiet life. A safe life. One rooted in faith, love, and the promise that the past would stay buried.

Until one phone call changes everything.

Her sister is alive.

Trapped inside one of the most secretive and brutal prison systems in the world, Soo-Min has survived the unimaginable. But survival isn't freedom-and time is running out.

Now, Ji-Ah faces an impossible choice:

Or risk everything to go back.

With the help of a Navy officer who refuses to walk away, and a man who understands how systems break, a daring plan begins to take shape-one that defies logic, challenges loyalty, and crosses a line few would ever dare approach.

Because most people are trying to escape North Korea...

THEY'RE TRYING TO BREAK IN.

Escape from the 38th is a gripping, emotional thriller about love, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bond between sisters-set against the backdrop of one of the most dangerous places on earth. Inspired by real-world truths, this unforgettable story asks one powerful question:

How far would you go to bring someone home?
