This was a good book to read if you want to learn more about what is going on regarding human trafficking in the US. It mainly covers what goes on in massage parlors and undercover investigations regarding it. There are a few short interviews done with various people as well. You'll also learn about stuff that goes on in other countries, but not too much in comparison to what is covered in the US. I think the reason why this book didn't get more stars in its rating from me is because I've read about 40 human trafficking books and there are quotes from some of the other books I've read. No matter what, the fact that it seems to go on each day in each neighborhood, hopefully will wake up people to wanting to stop it and to know that "normal" men are willing to harm other people, while there are other men who are lost and don't realize who these women are that they are abusing (and they won't even understand that it is abuse).

I didn't watch the DVD portion, but I think it is awesome that they have a study portion included with this!!! I think if you are just starting to learn about human trafficking, this is a good book to read. I enjoyed much of it!!! Let's go bring slavery to an end!
