Breaking free
true stories of girls who escaped modern slavery
Book - 2014
Award-winning author Abby Sher tells the riveting story of three survivors of sexual slavery. These three women could easily have been voiceless victims, lost to the horrors of their own histories. Instead of running from their pasts, they choose to help those still caught in the system. It sends the powerful message that, even in the most tragic circumstances, the unwavering hope and compassion of the human spirit can and will shine through. Teens, young adults, or anyone interested in the fight to end trafficking will find Breaking Free to be remarkable, timely, and incredibly inspiring.--COVER.
