Bought and Sold (Part 1 of 3)

Part one of a three-volume account, this memoir by Megan Stephens describes how a pleasant vacation in the Mediterranean turned into a nightmare she could never have imagined. Stephens was deceived into becoming a victim of trafficking and spent six years in captivity. Her captors kept her under control through lies, threats and violence. Told in her own voice, the book follows the first stage of that ordeal, starting from the moment an ordinary holiday changed course.
