Synopsis

426 pages Format 6 x 9 inches

Some walls are made of stone. Others are made of law, silence, and fear.

Hessa has known the weight of invisible chains since childhood. Born into a patriarchal family in the city of Nammas, Saudi Arabia, she grows up under the absolute authority of a father who rules his home like a fortress — with prayer on his lips and a belt in his hand.

When she finally flees a forced marriage, she discovers that freedom has a price. Taken in by a protection center that locks her up "for her own good," then transferred to Sarfia prison, Hessa must fight on every front — against the legal system, against her own family, and against a society that sees her rebellion as a disease.

But Hessa refuses to break.

Armed with nothing but her voice, her notebook, and the unwavering memory of her children, she embarks on an exhausting legal battle to reclaim her guardianship, her custody rights, and ultimately — herself.

The Long Road to Freedom is a powerful and uncompromising novel about patriarchy, resilience, and the true cost of liberty. It is the story of every woman who has ever been told that silence is virtue — and chose to speak anyway.
