Introduction
Diana Darke talks to Julia Wheeler about her new book, The Last Sanctuary in Aleppo. It's an incredible true story, seeing war-torn Aleppo from the view of an ambulance driver who cares for the people and animals caught in the crossfire and goes on, amidst the chaos and ruin, to create a cat sanctuary.
