In Columbia, where a kidnapping occurs every seven hours, Sylvia was abducted on her way to school in 1985. She was held in a small room, shackled to her bed, for three months while her father negotiated a price for her freedom. Secuestro narrates those three months in the words of Sylvia, her parents, her sisters, her friends, and one of her captors. Sylvia's story is shattering, yet it is but a microcosm of Latin American social reality. Secuestro is also a devastating critique the Colombian social policies that have made kidnapping an attractive option for anyone seeking to better his financial standing.
