Good Condition - Cover creasing and curl, bumped corners and edge rubbing. Price sticker on back cover.

Thirteen-year-old Belle grows up in a London brothel without fully understanding the world around her. When she witnesses the murder of one of the women, her sheltered life ends abruptly. Abducted and sold into prostitution, she is taken far from home and forced into a struggle for survival that eventually reaches New Orleans. The men who control her value her beauty, but Belle clings to the hope of family, love and freedom. Lesley Pearse follows a young woman's determination to preserve her spirit in the face of exploitation, while those who care about her must confront the dangers and distances that stand between them.
