Sav­ing Abi­gail is a true sto­ry about a lit­tle girl tak­en hostage by Hamas the morn­ing of Octo­ber 7, 2023, after thou­sands of ter­ror­ists breached Israel by land, sea, and air. That day, Hamas slaugh­tered 1,200 men, women, and chil­dren, and 246 inno­cent peo­ple were dragged across the bor­der into Gaza against their will. Among them was three-year-old Abi­gail Mor Edan, whose bor­der com­mu­ni­ty was ran­sacked by fight­ers going from house to house and killing, rap­ing, and abduct­ing civil­ians from their homes. Abigail’s moth­er and father were mur­dered in front of their chil­dren, and Abi­gail — the youngest — was abduct­ed. With no pri­or expe­ri­ence or road map for how to save a hostage from cap­tiv­i­ty, Abigail’s great aunt Liz Hirsh Naf­tali under­took an inter­na­tion­al effort to share her niece’s face and sto­ry — with the US gov­ern­ment, bipar­ti­san con­gres­sion­al lead­ers, and world lead­ers — find­ing unlike­ly allies and sup­port­ers along the way. Though not a diplo­mat, politi­cian, or mil­i­tary expert, Liz was deter­mined to extri­cate this child from an ongo­ing geopo­lit­i­cal night­mare and free her from the Hamas ter­ror­ists who held her.
