About this listen

While more and more people each day become aware of the dangerous world of human trafficking, most people in the U.S. still believe this is something that happens to foreign women, men, and children - not something that happens to their own. In this powerful true story, Theresa Flores shares how her life as an All-American, blue-eyed, blond-haired, 15-year-old teenager, who could have been your neighbor, was enslaved into the dangerous world of sex trafficking while living in an upper-middle class suburb of Detroit.

Her story peels the cover off of this horrific criminal activity and gives dedicated activists as well as casual bystanders a glimpse into the underbelly of trafficking. And it all happened while living at home without her parents ever knowing about it.

Involuntarily involved in a large underground criminal ring, Ms. Flores endured more as a child than most adults will ever face their entire lives. In this book, Ms. Flores discusses how she healed the wounds of sexual servitude and offers advice to parents and professionals on preventing this from occurring again, educating and presenting significant facts on human trafficking in modern day America.

Sad story

it's a sad story. Hard to believe that this happens in this modern world. There was not a lot of details. Too much jumping story lines at the beginning. It was confusing.

Absolutely heartbreaking, but a MUST-LISTEN

i am absolutely gutted that the only other review on this book rated it poorly due to the saddening subject matter. Not only is this author so inspiring because of her honesty, and strength, but she brings awareness to a subject most of us are unfamiliar with. This book is absolutely crucial to listen to. I couldn’t put it down and I have so much respect for the author for sharing such a difficult part of her life. Human trafficking can happen to anybody, and it’s important to read this book so you can know the signs and better understand the experience of the victims affected
