Description:

In this compelling and revealing book, Rahila Gupta uncovers the hidden reality of modern slavery in Britain, which persists long after the abolition movement led by Wilberforce. Though largely invisible to society, thousands of slaves continue to live among us. Gupta reaches out to five brave escapees and persuades them to share their harrowing stories.

The stories featured in the book include:

• A pregnant child from Sierra Leone, locked up in a London house as a domestic slave.

• A Russian teenager trafficked into prostitution.

• A Chinese man living in constant fear of the notorious Triads.

• A Somali religious woman forced to exchange sex for food.

• A young Punjabi woman who was coerced into marriage and repeatedly abused by her husband.

These powerful testimonies shed light on the courage, timing, luck, and the humanity of those who helped the survivors escape. Their stories are both heart-wrenching and important, reminding us of the ongoing fight for justice.
