Ta-Da! Book # 1,000 Registered!
I have this book so long that it has a HANDWRITTEN BookCrossing message on the inside cover! Imagine that! Well, I wanted to register it so that if I read it, it can count towards my TBR Challenge for next year!

From the website Overstock.com (Link) "... Mariane Pearl, a journalist herself, was in Karachi with her husband Danny Pearl, the South Asian bureau chief for the Wall Street Journal, on the day he was kidnapped, January 23, 2002. Here she tells the story of their marriage, their careers, and the frantic five-week search which ended with the sad news that Danny Pearl had been cruelly murdered by his abductors."

☺ Happy Traveling, Book! ☺
Thank you, Thank you! It's added to the TBR sooner shelf - and I already know it's home after I read it.
I read my j/e when this arrived. I have no idea who I was thinking of at the time, but it's pulled for early 2016 reading for the Dewey challenge on LibraryThing, ABC TBR and for release in the "M: bookring. So, it will be traveling!
rabck from dove-i-libri; I don’t remember much about this journalist's kidnapping and death. The story is told by his widow, who was also a journalist in Pakistan and pregnant. A lot of information about how journalism operates, and her position that the Wall Street Journal was not prepared to handle a crisis situation despite having foreign correspondents in war areas. As the week tick by, and the investigation continued, who do you trust? She's up against terrorists, dysfunctional governments, everyone seeming to have their own agenda and a clash of cultures.

If you aren't familiar with Bookcrossing, take a few minutes to check out this very cool site. Bookcrossers LOVE books, and more than anything, they love to read books and then set them free for other people to find and enjoy. I would love it if you would leave a journal entry -- you can say where you found the book or how you liked it when you read it. Then, when you are ready, pass it along for someone else to enjoy! Thanks and happy reading!
