Whispers in the Hearts of Men — Robert John Goddard

Whispers in the Hearts of Men is a provocative account of Richard Chambers's ordeal as a victim of kidnap in the Middle-East and his reactions to the desperate and hopeless situation. The book also explores the motivation of the kidnappers, who are responding to desperate and desolate conditions of their own. The situation's resolution has its roots in a shameful event Richard perpetrated over 30 years previously. The event has unforeseen consequences and serves to remind him that however much he might want to forget it, the past matters.
