Story of a Stolen Girl by Pat Spencer is definitely a Best Selling Novel. This fictional, but real story for what is happening at this time, is full of horror, love, and bravery. Darby was kidnapped, drugged and trafficked to another country where she was enslaved like an animal.
Each chapter moved back and forth in time and location and in circumstances from daughter and mother as the investigation progressed each day through the help of the authorities.
Enslavement and fear engulfed them as Nina, Darby’s mom, searched for her daughter. Once she learned where her daughter was taken, thanks to the authorities, this mother risked her own life and willingly allowed herself to be kidnapped and trafficked to find her daughter.
“What would you do to rescue your child?”
I couldn’t put the book down until it was finished. I read it every minute I had available till the very end. Will she find her? Will she be rescued? Will they escape and make it home, ALIVE?
Thousands of boys and girls are taken every day. Some will never be found. Kidnapping and human trafficking is a billion-dollar business and the victims, if found, are scarred forever.
Story of a Stolen Girl is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble (online and signed copies in the Oceanside B&N). Learn more about human trafficking prevention and services to support survivors as well as more about this author at Pat’s website.
