This was my first introduction to the series and to Jasmina. I like the way the book was written and how it leads the reader through the caharacter's emotional growth. That said, it is this emotional growth and relationship with her brother - as well as her confrontation with reality - that provides the central plot to this book, not her attempt to rescue the other girls, as implied in the blurb. Of course, this is part of the story, but not central.
I would recommend this book as a eye-opener not only to human-trafficking, but to the emotional and mental state of the people who have grown up in a society so different to that in Western Europe or North America.

I loved this book. I wasn't sure how the story of Jasmina could continue and capture the readers attention but this was perfect. The story and characters are amazing. It's informative, real and believable. The more we can make the world aware of this atrocity, the better we can work to break down the barriers of ending trafficking. Keep going!
