In the midst of war, famine, and displacement, one woman carries hope across borders.
This book follows the gripping true-to-life journey of Amara, a dedicated United Nations Official, as she navigates deployment after deployment to some of the world’s most volatile conflict zones. From the dusty refugee camps of Maiduguri to the bombed-out cities of Yemen, Amara must rapidly adapt to unfamiliar cultures, harsh living conditions, and bureaucratic challenges – all while delivering lifesaving aid to the most vulnerable: women and children caught in the chaos of man-made crises.
Torn between her personal desire for stability and the unrelenting call of duty, Amara’s story is one of resilience, cultural immersion, and silent sacrifices. Each new mission brings a fresh test of her endurance, empathy, and professional integrity. Whether she’s negotiating access with warlords, setting up safe spaces for abused women, or simply learning to sleep through mortar fire, Amara’s journey is both harrowing and inspiring.
Woman in the Field is a raw, emotionally rich tale that lifts the veil on the unglamorous yet critical work of frontline humanitarian service – and the women who make it possible.
Perfect for readers who love stories of real-world heroism, global affairs, and the courage of women under fire.
