Fast-paced thriller about the trafficking of children who are brought to Britain for a better life but end up working outside of the system.
Working in the Human Trafficking Unit, Detective Inspector Anthony Carter has a wall of snapshots in his office of unknown children; children without passports, without identity, without family, without hope, who have been smuggled into this country to be enslaved and exploited. Rosemary 11, is a terrorised young girl from West Africa, who thought she was coming to England to be educated. She is sold as a house servant; Kim Pak, 15, is a gardener in a Vietnamese cannabis house, imprisoned in a semi in suburbia; Georgie, 14, from the Ukraine, is put to work in the food industry, making sandwiches.
Despairing at the sheer number of cases, Detective Carter knows that if he could save just one of those faces on his wall, it would be worthwhile.
