El 6 de junio de 2004, en un tranquilo suburbio de Riad, el corresponsal de Seguridad para la BBC, Frank Gardner, y su cámara, Simon Cumbers, cayeron en una emboscada de militantes islamistas. Simon murio en el acto y Frank, a quien dispararon por la espalda mientras huia resulto herido en el hombro y en la pierna. Ya en el suelo, rogando por su vida, lo acribillaron a una distancia muy corta.Contra todo pronostico, sobrevivio. Este es el magnifico relato del agonizante y esperanzador viaje que ha realizado desde que sufrio el atentado de Al Qaeda.
