The promise

Edición de la obra The promise

"Mallory Hammond is determined not to let her boyfriend, parents, or anyone else get in the way of her goal to save a life. She had that chance when she was a teenager, and the opportunity slipped away, leaving a void she's desperate to fill. Then a new friend she met online offers her the chance she has dreamed of. But she'll have to leave behind everyone she loves to take it"-- As a teenager Mallory wanted to donate a kidney to save her cousin, but couldn't. Now she informs her parents and her boyfriend Tate that she will donate a kidney to save the life of Majida, the daughter of her Pakistani pen pal Abdul. She travels to Pakistan, and reluctantly agrees to wed Abdul so Majida can come to America for treatment. Motivated by the naive trust, Mallory now faces betrayal and life-threatening danger in Pakistan's lawless Pashtun tribal regions. Her only hope in this hopeless situation is a loving heavenly Father, whose presence sustains her.
