Publisher Description
Pilar, an innocent young wife and mother, is abducted during a fake job interview in Mexico City and forced into sex slavery in Houston. Can she survive the horrors of a world—one which many Americans don’t see or ignore—long enough for her brother Diego to find her?
Searching for Pilar breaks open the secretive and dangerous world of sex trafficking, while exploring human nature and our connections to each another. Diego’s guilt transforms him from a rudderless youth into a man of purpose, and courage. While he searches, Pilar finds a strength that could save herself and a young girl who needs her. The themes of family, love, faith and the law intertwine in this action-packed tale of the Bayou City.
Customer Reviews
Searching for Pilar
This is a searing tale about three women sold into sex slavery. While it is brutal, it highlights a crime that has only recently been given the attention it deserves.
The book offers a way to understand the topic of sexual slavery through great character development. It is very readable without being a dry text on the subject.
I highly recommend.
