A daughter in an unimaginable situation. And the guiding light of faith that carried them through.\nTHE MESSAGE CAME AT MIDNIGHT\nJon and Tracy Willems had been counting the hours since they had heard from their daughter Hanna after her plane touched down in Egypt. As every parent knows, a message at midnight is never the one you want to receive.\nMom, give me a call when you wake up in the morning.\nOnly the message wasn’t from Hanna. It was from her younger sister, the last person Hanna had visited with before embarking on her journey to Egypt. Tracy did not wait until morning to make the call. She would not sleep again that night. She would not sleep well for many more.\nWhen Jon and Tracy Willems’ daughter Hanna ventured across the world for what was supposed to be an exciting year of working abroad in Egypt, things quickly took an unexpected turn, and the family found themselves in the middle of a waking nightmare.\nFalsely apprehended at customs for suspected drug trafficking, Hanna was placed in an Egyptian jail under unthinkable conditions with no tether to the outside world. As Jon and Tracy struggled to put together the pieces of where their daughter had gone and what horrible fate might await her, Hanna sat thousands of miles away in a crowded and filthy cell. So began Jon and Tracy’s fight for their daughter’s freedom. But they were not alone.\nWhat could have easily been a story of a family’s hardship and terror is instead a story of God’s grace during their most trying days. At its core, When We Could Not See the Moon is about a family cast in darkness amid the unimaginable situation Hanna found herself in. It’s a story of how faith united people across the world and worked through them to provide a guiding light throughout the journey.\nThough names, locations, and other key elements have been changed or fictionalized to protect those who worked so fiercely to bring Hanna home, the Willems’ story is otherwise entirely based in fact. Encompassing the perspectives of parents Jon and Tracy Willems, sister Taylor, and Hanna herself, this harrowing true story captures all the defining characteristics of humanity: despair, distrust, and suffering but also faith, hope, compassion, and community. Dynamic and engaging with excerpts from the journal Hanna kept throughout this unbelievable series of events, When We Could Not See the Moon will speak to parents, people of faith, warriors for justice—and anyone who finds themselves lost in the dark, desperately searching for the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781962202749\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ballast Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51757498040621,"sku":"FBA_N_AM_7267","price":20.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/5853\/5981\/files\/71scYuUbIqL.jpg?v=1768490441","url":"https:\/\/silkroadstore.us\/products\/when-we-could-not-see-the-moon-our-daughter-locked-away-in-a-foreign-jail","provider":"Silk Road Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
