Actually there are so many powerful persons involved in this crime and I understand why it's so hard to stop it. This is organized crime on a very high level that involves people from all kinds of social rank.
I have to thank the girl for all the knowledge she gave me about the subject, a knowledge that opened my eyes and made me decide to help as much as I can. This is a the raw story told by an involved. When the book was finished I told the girl that she will get the income from it, but then she replied that we better give it to the girls who need it and that is what we agreed to do. All income from this book will be donated to organisations fighting human trafficing.
All names have been changed in this book to protect the victims and other involved, but the story is told in their own words. A story about human trafficing, abuse, threats, violence and intimidation.

This book is a must read!!!
It makes me realize not everything is perfect.Everything is not always within your reach. you always have to face a lot of of obstacles before you can get what you wanted...Just like what happen to joy. She been through a lot. In able to pay for her parents debt she was sent away from home and make her work as a Prostitute.
This is the book that you must read, it tells it all. How our fellow people from poor countries has been deceive of a good life in another countries. and how this organization take advantage their weakness.
Two thumbs up to the writer!!
