Senores Familia Stendal, the accompanying photo proves that your son is still alive. This is your last warning. We demand 12 million pesos by December 25, 1983 or we will kill your son. - Los Captores. The terror began on August 14, 1983. American bush pilot Russell Stendal, on routine business, landed his plane in a remote Colombian village. Gunfire exploded throughout the town and within minutes Russell's 142-day ordeal had begun. The guerilla fighters explained that this was a kidnapping for ransom and that he would be held until payment was made. Held at gunpoint deep in the jungle and with little else to occupy his time, Russell began to write. He told the story of his life and kept a record of his experience in the guerilla camp. His "book" became a bridge to the men who held him and now serves as the basis for this incredible true story of how God's love penetrated a physical and ideological jungle. - Back cover.
