13 Days, 13 Nights
13 Jours, 13 Nuits
Kabul, mid-August under dust-laden wind. A solitary sand-colored Citroën idles outside a shuttered embassy. Flames lick the horizon as Taliban flags unfurl block by block. Inside, Commander Bida counts fifty hostages, one exit, and dwindling fuel. One hope, one runway, thirty-six hours left before the city swallows itself whole.
