A thrilling novel that tackles the real truths behind human trafficking. Definitely a different approach and very unique. Heartbreakingly real and unimaginable. Tells the tale of a promised life sold into slavery. 

The book started off slow and very repetitive. It didn't start to pick up until the last 50 pages or so, but once it did, it was hard to put down. 

Although this book is a fiction, it's story is very much real and happens more often than we realize. I really appreciated how the ending of this book gave resources and numbers to contact to report human trafficking and information to learn more about it.
