Zara's father is over thrown, as her country's Head of State, by a military Junta. While still shattered by this news, death threats to her life kept increasing. The College therefore, requests she withdraws from the institution, as it could no longer guarantee her safety. Zara is left devastated, destitute and betrayed. Then, kidnapped, because of her father's corrupt $29.5 million diamond "deal", for which she knew nothing about. What is the ill-prepared young Zara to do? Has she got inner strengths to device her own survival strategies? Can she surmount and navigate through unimaginable challenges, and attain her objectives?
