The Charismatic Charlie Wade

The seven arrogant college hostages felt as if they’d been struck by lightning at Commander Hamid’s words.

Their whole world had just collapsed around them.

The purpose of them coming to Syria to film a documentary was very different from Zoey.

They were looking forward to being showered with praise, getting party invites, and in general making connections and impressions off the documentary.

They’d never dreamed that upon coming to Syria to create this “resume qualification” they would be captured and held for the rest of their lives! At the thought of staying in this god forsaken wasteland for their lifetime, the hostages all began to weep and sob.
