This book concentrates on the illegal trafficking of people, in this case mainly women for the sex trade. It's thankfully not too graphic but certainly doesn't hold back on the sleaze and violence in the lives of these women in their frightening and degrading situations. The O'Donnell and Kesslers are still key in this book but we are now into the grandchildren of the originals from Sins of Their Fathers. This book is just as gripping, fast paced and violent.
