About this ebook

From the age of three, the very people who were meant to be looking after and protecting Sarah Forsyth were sexually abusing her. Somehow she managed to overcome the hurt and heartbreak of a horrific childhood, and build a new and happy life for herself as a nursery nurse. Then, one day, Sarah spotted a newspaper advert for a job in a creche in Amsterdam. Thrilled by the prospect of a fresh start away from Newcastle and all the memories it held, she eagerly signed up. But within minutes of arriving in Amsterdam her life began to fall apart. There was no creche and no job: Sarah was a victim of sex-trafficking. Fed cocaine and cannabis, and forced at gunpoint to work as a prostitute in the red light district of Amsterdam, Sarah was turned from a young innocent English girl into a desperate and terrified crack whore. Riddled with fear about what her pimps would do to her if they caught her trying to run away, it took Sarah almost a year to find the strength to fight back and escape. But, unlike many of the girls that she was forced to live and work beside, she did get away. Sarah Forsyth is a survivor. This is her heartbreaking story.

    It was a fairy good book. Sometimes hard to believe a person could do things like that to another person, hard to believe this is the "norm" overseas

    Wow. Crazy story. But I'm glad I read it and she's safe now.

    This is a shocking but compelling tale that I found difficult to put down. It is written in the first person and the narrative is easy to follow throughout, with an afterword given at the end of the book giving an interesting perspective on some relevant laws and police operations relating to human trafficking.Having walked around the red light district in Amsterdam as a tourist, I have to say I would never do so again. This book exposes a truth that the majority of tourists are completely naïve about. The author has bravely written this account and made her experiences public. Lets hope the authorities take note and appropriate actions to prevent similar experiences for other innocent girls.

    There where times in the book I wanted to yell at the pages, shake Sarah and just save her. The book is honest and makes clear the realities of being a sex slave, it's heart retching in so many places.I would recommend it because I feel Sarah is a brave women and her story deserves to be heard. There are images this books has given me that 2 years later are still with me, though I can picture and believe I understand them, I truly can't. For taking me somewhere I have never been before, and hope I never go I thank Sarah for sharing her story with us.

    Pathetic. You clearly know nothing about sex trafficking. People in the sex trafficking business would never give the girl marijuana to make them more compliant.
