Newly heartbroken and searching for purpose in her life, Abby Monroe is determined to make her mark as a UN worker in one of the
world's most unstable cities: Peshawar, Pakistan. But after witnessing the brutal murder of a woman thrown from a building, she is haunted by the memory of an intricate and sparkling bracelet that adorned the victim's wrist. At a local women's shelter, Abby meets former sex slaves who have miraculously escaped their captors. As she gains the girls' trust and documents their horrifying accounts of unspeakable pain and betrayal, she joins forces with a dashing New York Times
reporter who believes he can incriminate the shadowy leader of the
vicious human trafficking ring. Inspired by the women's remarkable
bravery -- and the mysterious reappearance of the bracelet -- the
duo traces evidence that spreads from remote villages of South
Asia to the most powerful corners of the West, risking their lives
to offer a voice to the countless innocents in bondage. pub date: 2012-11-06 | Paperback | 9781451669121 |
