review 1: This is an important and courageous book that demands our attention.It is a detailed outline of these crimes, exploitation and corruption at all levels, and wilful complicity at the highest levels.I could hardly believe some of what I was reading it is so appalling. But the authors research and presentation is detailed and meticulous - and the research itself was undertaken at great personal hazard. The only important question is how to put a stop to it. Not easy, as the author makes clear. But why is it that so many - and again, at the highest levels - don't seem willing to even try. I share the authors heartbreak and her disgust. It's the 21st century and people are still buying and selling other people as property - to be used for sex, for labor, or just for body pa... morerts. Do nothing, and you're on their side.
review 2: An extremely powerful and disturbing book that deals with one of the most repugnant crimes that exist in the world today: Human trafficking.Lydia Cacho handles her writing with confidence, and fills each page with victims experiences, most of which are shocking and near impossible to stomach. This book is a bastion of hope and one that needs to be read by everyone, as not nearly enough people care, know or do as much as what should be done to prevent the abuse of vulnerable people for the sake of pleasure and profit.This book deserves a five star rating not because of the quality of its writing, but because of the pain and courage of the people within it. Most importantly it has the ability to motivate in a way only very few pieces of writing can. less
