Lost opening line: Miami International Airport isn’t exactly a tranquil space on a normal day – if there’s such a thing as a normal day at MIA.

This book opened my eyes to the life of the women in the Red Light District of Amsterdam. And to the horror of what people are capable of in this underworld life. An easy read from these authors.

Ooooh, this sounds quite heavy, TAndy. I read another book about child trafficking – heart breaking.
It is heart breaking!
sounds like an intriguing story.
We were in Amsterdam a couple of years ago, and we just had to walk through the red light district just to say we did so. It was kind of depressing.
I found it intriguing – the women looked so bored!
