The Last thing to Burn is the heartbreaking tale of a woman's struggle to retain her personhood in the face of modern slavery. When her daughter is born, her resolve changes to desperation.
It's a phenomenal story, well-told, with interesting characters and easily-accessible language.
Highly recommend.
