Nessa travels to the West Bank to unveil the university funded by the family foundation, meeting her translator Atika. However the university principal queries why the money should be forthcoming, suggesting that it was sent to Gaza instead. Nessa cannot understand why and gets no joy from a call to Ephra so she and Atika set off for Gaza, where they are abducted by Al-Zahid for a ransom. Nessa rings Ephra and he asks Julia Walsh for help. She contacts Monica but there is no immediate ransom and Nessa and Atika are sexually assaulted, Atika killing her rapist.
