Many may remember Ingrid Betancourt's risky and dramatic rescue by the Colombian army back in 2008 after her six and a half years of captivity with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). Regarded as one of the most well-known political hostages of all time, Betancourt details her astonishing struggle to survive 2,321 days of captivity in the Colombian jungles in her latest tell-all memoir, Even Silence Has an End. Chilling, surreal and at times devastatingly heartbreaking, Betancourt's journey is nothing short of extraordinary. Reading more like fiction, the memoir is being haled as "a classic of Colombian history and literature"; and it's most definitely one story that will keep you up late with its nail-biting and emotional accounts of survival.
