Publisher's Summary
Embark on a chilling journey inside one of the world’s darkest and most dangerous places: Evin, the notorious Tehran prison. Here, prisoners are routinely tortured, abused, and violated. Executions are frequent and sudden. But for two women imprisoned for their Christian faith - Maryam Rostampour and Marziyeh Amirizadeh - this hell on earth was a place of unlikely grace as they reflected God’s love and compassion to their fellow prisoners and guards. Against all odds, Evin would become the only church many of them had ever known.
In Captive in Iran, Maryam and Marziyeh recount their 259 days in Evin. It’s an amazing story of unyielding faith - when denying God would have meant freedom. Of incredible support from strangers around the world who fought for the women’s release. And of bringing God’s light into one of the world’s darkest places - giving hope to those who had lost everything, and showing love to those in despair.

Fascinating account
Fascinating account of two women who were arrested for their faith in Iran , and stinging account of their time in prison. Horrifying and yet inspiring. Audio performance was very good.

5 star story, 1 star narrator
The story is great. However, I couldn't get past the 5th chapter (although I tried several times) because I was so irritated by the narrator. She is narrating a woman from a Muslim background but has terrible pronunciation of Muslim and Iranian words (e.g. "muzzlim" for Muslim and "koo-rahn" for Quran.) I found myself focusing more on the narrator's flaws than the story. She overly emphasizes her words as though she is reading to children and her accent grated me (is she Canadian or near that area?) . The narrator would be better suited to read American children's books. I am refunding this audio edition because of the narrator.
I plan to buy the written version of the book however as the story was so intriguing, courageous and full of faith. I encourage you to also buy the written version.
