I have the hardcover edition of Burned by David Hagberg, but I can't scan it 
myself.

I'll ship it to the Bookshare offices unless someone on the list wants to 
tackle it.

Here's the synopsis:

Patty and David Monroe have flown to Moscow to repair a business deal which has 
gone bad-when it suddenly turns nightmarish.  Shooting David and kidnapping
Patty, their Russian business partners drive her to a ramshackle dacha twenty 
miles east of Moscow.  There, her captors-along with brutal Islamic 
terrorists-will
attempt to ransom her.  Patty will face the most frightening ordeal imaginable.

For the first time in history, FBI agents must work with Russian security 
forces.  In an atmosphere of violent mistrust and political hatred, only their
burning desire to rescue Patty Monroe will hold the operation together.

Burned is inspired by the horrifying ordeal of Yvonne Bornstein.  Kidnapped in 
Russia in the 1990s by Islamic terrorists, Yvonne and her husband were held
for ransom.  During her captivity she was tortured, starved, and abused. Her 
captors were affiliated with early al Qaeda partisans. While this book is
fiction, Burned captures the spirit of Yvonne's resistance and ultimate triumph.
