Captive Market is the first ever book-length exposé of the business side of kidnapping in Nigeria. Using first hand interviews with kidnap victims and their families, a story emerges that is packed with surprising twists, turns and paradoxes as it shines a light on the fear and the fact of kidnapping.
 
Kidnapping in Nigeria, though a growing fact of life that few want to talk about, is not very well understood. Its existence is a cancer that needs to be rooted out - it limits the potential of a growing Nigerian economy and the simple fear of being the next kidnapping victim degrades how many Nigerians live their lives.
 
Captive Market takes the view that if we understand the way kidnappers think about kidnapping it might be easier to get people out of kidnapping situations.  It uses first person kidnapping stories and interviews with hostage negotiators and peeks into the twisted and bizarre world of kidnapping insurance.
