Scott Sanders arrived in Shenzhen on a business trip, and checked into a five-star hotel. Scott had a great time exploring his new neighborhood...until he found himself tied to a cross in an empty apartment building. Scott’s captors wanted information, and they wanted it NOW.

Chaos and bloodshed engulfed Iraq between 2006-2007. Jamie Tarabay served as NPR’s Baghdad Bureau Chief during those years, reporting on the horrific tragedies that occured around her. But disaster hit home when kidnappers seized a member of her colleague’s family.
Jamie’s original piece, produced by herself and Dianna Douglas, can be found here.
Thanks so much to the Third Coast Audio Festival for letting us use tape of Jamie at their last conference.
