At the time, he had no idea who his kidnappers were. They demanded a ransom and the release of three of their comrades from Guantanamo, yet they hinted at their ties to Pakistan and to the Haqqani network, a uniquely powerful group that now holds the balance of power in large parts of Afghanistan and the tribal areas of Pakistan. After his release, Van Dyk wrote a book about his capture and what it took to survive in this most hostile of circumstances. Yet he never answered the fundamental questions that his kidnapping raised: Why was he taken? Why was he released? And who saved his life? Every kidnapping is a labyrinth in which the certainties of good and bad, light and dark are merged in the quiet dialogues and secret handshakes that accompany a release or a brutal fatality. In The Trade, Jere Van Dyk uses the sinuous path of his own kidnapping to explain the recent rise in the taking of Western hostages across the greater Middle East. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 Van Dyk, Jere|xCaptivity, 2008. 610 20 Taliban. 650 0 Political kidnapping|zAfghanistan. 650 0 Political kidnapping|zMiddle East. 650 0 Journalists|zAfghanistan|vBiography. 650 0 Prisoners|zAfghanistan|vBiography. 700 1 Boehmer, Paul. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 12044709?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ ttm_9781515927464_180.jpeg
