Paperback. When Natascha Kampusch made her bid for freedom on August 23, 2006 after 8yrs held captive in a seemingly ordinary Austrian suburban house, her story horrified and astonished the entire world. How did she survive a childhood locked in a cellar? What sort of young woman had emerged? What kind of man was Wolfgang Priklopil, her abductor - and what demands had he made of her? The authors tracked the story from the days of the 10yr old's disappearance. They have spoken to police investigators, lawyers, psychiatrists, and to the family members closest to Natscha. They have come as close as possible to uncovering the full, shocking story. Illus. in colour. + Index. 286pp. p/back. Vg.
