very movong account oof how 14 year old British Girl was basically abducted and forced to work as asex slave in Greece and briefly in Italy. ( )

Read this review on my blog

Megan's story sent chills down my spine. Human trafficking is something that you hear about in the news but you never really quite understand just how much it actually happens.

This story is brutally honest, full of details that are very hard to read. This type of book is not for the easily affected or faint of heart. It details emotional, physical and sexual abuse, it is a story that deeply shocks, giving the reader an insight into the sick world of human trafficking for sex.

An intimate portrait of the brainwashing and control of a 14 year old victim - at points the story is hard to believe. Megan had many chances to escape but she did not, nor did she ever believe that Jak, (the man she initially fell in love with) never really loved her. Its not something a person can understand unless they have been victim to the kinds of abuse Megan was subjected to. I also found it hard to understand why her mother would leave her 14 year old daughter in Greece - that was so utterly beyond me.

Nonetheless, this is a gripping read and an excellent cautionary tale. ( )
