In 2001, Zana Muhsen and Crofts wrote a follow-up, A Promise to Nadia - the true story of a British slave. The picture of a veiled woman on the cover of Sold is Nadia Muhsen. Lieutenant became an international bestseller and was dramatised by British Broadcasting Corporation Radio 4. Zana Muhsen remained in England and in 1992, wrote Sold: Story of Modern-day Slavery with the ghostwriter Andrew Crofts, describing her experiences. The girls begged McDonald, and her male photographer, to help them leave the country, and the media coverage provoked an outcry in the United Kingdom. In 1987, an Observer journalist, Eileen McDonald, visited the girls and wrote a series of articles portraying the Muhsens as cruelly-treated slaves. Zana lived in a town called Hockail and Nadia lived in Ashube. Birmingham, West Midlands, United Kingdom
