The 36-year-old was working for the American aid agency DAI International when she was kidnapped by Afghan rebels. For two weeks her captors led her into a hostile mountain region, moving between a series of remote farmsteads. On October 8 2010, Linda was killed by an American grenade during a pre-dawn rescue that also saw all of her captors killed.
Linda's Story traces the emotional journey taken by family and friends in the two years since, and their determination not to apportion blame, which has earned them international respect.
