A very personal memoir of a woman's fight with the Canadian and British governments to get help for her troubled son, bullied along the way by the tabloid press who dubbed him "Jihadi Jack," and her and her husband's resulting conviction for aiding terrorism after they sent a small amount of money to help their son leave Syria
