On 17 April 1986 John McCarthy was kidnapped in Beirut. For the
next five years he was cut off from everything and everybody he
knew and loved, from family, friends, and, perhaps above all, from
Jill Morrell, the girl he was going to marry. For five years, John
McCarthy had to endure the deprivation - both physical and
psychological - of captivity; the filth and squalor of the cells in
which he was kept; the agony of isolation and repeated
self-examination; and the pain of ignorance, of not knowing if
those he loved even realized he was alive. For Jill Morrell, the
five years of John's captivity were a different kind of hell: the
initial shock and disbelief; the gradual acceptance that John had
been taken and that her life had changed irrevocably, that all
their plans had been shattered. But Jill refused to give up hope.
For five years she and a group of friends worked ceaselessly on
behalf of John and all British hostages in the Middle East, until
the extraordinary day in August 1991 when John McCarthy stepped
down from an aeroplane at RAF Lyneham. A day when they could begin
again. This is their story, a remarkable account of courage,
endurance, hope and love.
