How the 7/7 bombings led a British woman on a remarkable journey through Afghanistan
MAGSIE HAMILTON LITTLE:
When British writer Magsie Hamilton Little witnessed the carnage caused by a suicide bomber in London on July 7th 2005, it had a profound effect on her. Magsie was studying Islam and Farsi, but felt she had no answers to the questions raised by the bombings. In a bid to find that understanding, she set off on a journey to Afghanistan which would lead to her risking her life in an attempt to rescue a kidnapped friend.
