In 2009, Samieh Hezari made a terrible mistake. She flew from her adopted home of Ireland to her birthplace in Iran so her 14-month-old daughter, Rojha, could be introduced to the child's father. When the violent and unstable father refused to allow his daughter to leave and demanded that Samieh renew their relationship, a two-week holiday became a desperate five-year battle to get her daughter out of Iran. If Samieh could not do so before Rojha turned seven, the father could take sole custody—forever. The father's harassment and threats intensified, eventually resulting in an allegation of adultery that was punishable by stoning, but Samieh—a single mother trapped in a country she saw as restricting the freedom and future of her daughter—never gave up, gaining inspiration from other Iranian women facing similar situations. As both the trial for adultery and her daughter's seventh birthday loomed the Irish government was unable to help, leaving Samieh to attempt multiple illegal escapes in an unforgettable, epic journey to freedom. Trapped in Iran is the harrowing and emotionally gripping story of how a mother defied a man and a country to win freedom for her daughter.

In the Summer of 2011, Amir Hekmati travels to Iran to visit his relatives for the first time. 3 weeks into the trip, and only a few days before his return home, he is abruptly detained by Iranian Intelligence operatives, and imprisoned. Amir's arrest coincides with the US arrest of Iranian National, Mansour Arbabsiar in NYC, the man convicted of attempting to blow up the Saudi Embassy in Washington D.C. Amir Hekmati, a former US Marine and Combat Veteran, is subjected to torture, sentenced to death by hanging, and ultimately endures close to 5 years in Evin Prison while negotiations for a prisoner swap are underway. Amir details his story of survival under the horrific conditions he endured. After a 18 month period of solitary confinement, Amir is sent to a maximum security prison where his cellmates are career Iranian operatives arrested for having worked for the CIA, the Israeli Mossad, and British MI6. In exclusive, never before told details, Amir tells the stories of those imprisoned for having been on the front line of the covert war being waged between the USA, and Iran as told to him by career Iranian spies. Amir's story is also one of high stakes diplomacy at the highest levels of the US and Iranian Governments. President Obama, Secretary Kerry, US Military Generals, celebrities, politicians, and everyday Americans unite in a multi-year campaign to bring an American home. In Crossfire: Trapped in the US-Iran Covert War, Amir takes the reader through a journey of covert war, high-stakes diplomacy, and what it is like to be caught in the crossfire.

Maryam Rostampour and Marziyeh Amirizadeh knew they were putting their lives on the line. Islamic laws in Iran forbade them from sharing their Christian beliefs, but in three years, they’d covertly put New Testaments into the hands of twenty thousand of their countrymen and started two secret house churches. In 2009, they were finally arrested and held in the notorious Evin Prison in Tehran, a place where inmates are routinely tortured and executions are commonplace. In the face of ruthless interrogations, persecution, and a death sentence, Maryam and Marziyeh chose to take the radical—and dangerous—step of sharing their faith inside the very walls of the government stronghold that was meant to silence them. In Captive in Iran, two courageous Iranian women recount how God used their 259 days in Evin Prison to shine His light into one of the world’s darkest places, giving hope to those who had lost everything and showing love to those in despair.

Tehran, 1978 Iran is sliding into revolution. The escalating chaos provides ample opportunities for adventurers. A secret fund that is to be transported to Bahais in southeastern Iran has excited the larcenous instincts of several disparate parties: the Islamic Warriors of Truth, the amoral son of a missionary, a desperate husband, a group of exiled Kurds, and a determined US agent. Events push the reserved but vulnerable Margaret Lexler, trapped in a faux marriage, into the arms of ex-marine Mitchell Ritchie; but is he who he says he is? Now she finds herself in the center of the drama, Ritchie and a young Iranian named Daryush her only shields. Pursued and pursuing from Tehran to Kerman to Bam to the edge of the Empty Desert, one of the most desolate regions on the planet, the opposing parties meet in a bloody showdown at the Burnt City, an eerie geological formation resembling a petrified city, rumored to be a hideout for bandits, smugglers, and demons... Jay R. Crook, a veteran of more than 17 years in Iran and an eye-witness to the Iranian Revolution, provides his readers with a sumptuous banquet of violence, intrigue, greed, and lust in the streets of Tehran and Kerman, a Sufi shrine, the ruins of Bam, the Empty Desert, and the Burnt City itself.
