WINNER OF THE ORWELL PRIZE, WINNER OF THE MICHEL DÉON PRIZE, SHORTLISTED FOR THE BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE, AND NON-FICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR IN THE IRISH BOOK AWARDS. The Western world has largely abandoned refugees, contributing to a severe human rights crisis. In August 2018, Sally Hayden received a desperate message from a refugee in a Libyan prison, leading to an investigation into the migrant crisis in North Africa. The messages revealed harrowing tales of enslavement, torture, and abuse, all stemming from European policies. The narrative explores the shocking realities faced by refugees seeking safety, while also addressing the broader issues of NGO negligence and corruption within the United Nations. It examines the economics of modern slavery, the EU's funding of Libyan militias, and the challenges faced by aid workers. It raises critical questions about accountability for the abuse, the lack of solutions, and the inadequate media coverage of these issues. At its core, this work highlights the unimaginable choices refugees make to survive in a system designed to silence them. It is a poignant exploration of human resilience amidst overwhelming adversity, revealing the urgent need for awareness and action. Praise for the work emphasizes its compassion, bravery, and meticulous research, marking it as a vital testament to a dark chapter in history.

Wir lernen ihre Besitzer kennen, erfahren, ob sie ihr Haus renovieren oder neu haben bauen lassen, wie sie es eingerichtet haben und mit welchen Mitteln es ihnen gelungen ist, jenes ganz eigene Flair zu schaffen, das das Meer ins Haus holt.
