Focusing on the families of those affected by the '9/11 wars,' this book uncovers the emotional and social toll on wives and relatives of men detained in Guantanamo or under arrest in the US and UK. Victoria Brittain highlights their struggles against state invisibility and scapegoating, revealing the harsh realities of arbitrary power exercised under the guise of the 'War on Terror.' The narrative serves as both a critique of societal intolerance and a tribute to the resilience of these families, prompting critical discussions on civil liberties and the consequences of security measures.
