Kevin Hyland, former UK Independent Anti-Slavery Commissioner
«As a survivor myself, I know firsthand how Monique’s fierce and relentless drive in fighting modern slavery and empowering those who have endured it has been transformative. Her knowledge and expertise, strengthened over many years of being at the frontline of this fight, is stamped on every page of this book, a real page turner.»
Evelyne Chumbow, survivor of forced labor
«I discovered sex trafficking through filming SOLD, and Monique Villa’s book is an eye opener on the human experience of slavery. She keeps the survivors’ voices and weaves them with a global insight into modern slavery. I don’t usually feel hopeful when I read about the issue, but this book had that effect on me. A tour de force.»
