Trapped in Plain Sight: The Unfamiliar Face of Human Trafficking - Paperback

by Carla Stephens (Foreword by), Mary Kaye Holmes (Author)

Every day, human traffickers are out hunting their next victims and they'll likely find them. Will it be your child? Unfortunately, traffickers know who they can approach. They know who they can groom, and they can spot the little girls with the daddy issues. They know the profile of the young girl going through an identity crisis and struggling with low self-esteem. They've studied the behavior patterns of rebellious teens on the verge of running away. They've mastered the art of manipulation and they have learned to be patient and pounce at the right time. That's what happened to me.

Trapped in Plain Sight uncovers the "new" face of human trafficking. It's the young girl forced to transport drugs. It's the young girl forced into sexual acts to test her loyalty. It's the young girl who's raped every night, but she doesn't consider it rape because in exchange for her body she's paid with a place to sleep after she ran away from home. Who will protect her? Who will save her? Now imagine this is your sixteen-year-old daughter.
