When HumanTrafficking Gets Personal
Jared Andrews, a medical student at UCLA, Los Angeles, takes a vacation during semester and visits Calcutta, India. His friend introduces him, unexpectedly, to the dark side of the city and takes him to a brothel, where to his shock Jared meets a twelve year old girl by the name of Hann'sha and discovers that she has been held, in bondage, for the last four years providing sexual service to men every day since. Jared sets out on a mission to save Hann'sha but soon discovers that the system is designed to defeat him at every turn. A passionate story about one man's mission, and another young girl's hope - inextricably wound up in the convoluted underworld of criminality which has created an industry out of human trafficking. It is a story about hope and of never giving up.
Gripped by his novel about sex slavery, Swedish campaigners have enlisted a Gothenburg-based Canadian to help fight human trafficking, writes Sanne Schim van der Loeff.

I just finished this book on my break - it was so moving - it made me cry. You are an even more amazing writer than I always knew you were. How much of the story is true? The woman who took the children in sounds like the missionary I met. Our mission's money helps support her ministry. Your are truly awesome!!!!!!!!!! So glad I know you. Going to start Finding Agnetha at lunch.

"I just finished your book, SEE ME NOT and I must say it is one of your best. Watching you grow as a writer and seeing the background knowledge you acquire before putting a pen to paper is a large part of the pleasure I get from reading your books. Although this is a short novella it is riveting and the reward for reading to a conclusion is gratifying. Thank you for moving me in such a way."
