“Laura’s candid account of her unplanned stint as a war reporter has the kind of detail that news stories leave out, like the hazards of riding a motor scooter through streets where there’s likely to be gunfire, or how to talk one’s way out of being kidnapped. You meet Laura’s circle of expat journalists, some still in Yemen, and witness Yemen’s Arab Spring of 2011 as it unfolds.” —A PRI’s The World’s top book of 2014
