The harrowing memoir of a seventeen year-old girl who survives her family’s attempt to kill her.

A young Jordanian woman became pregnant after a brief love affair. The shame drove her family to commit an “honor crime”, dousing her with gasoline and setting her on fire.

Burned Alive chronicles her miraculous survival; surviving with critical burns, escaping Jordan, and building a new life for herself.
