Driven by the desire to start a career or escape poverty, women migrate in search of work and a better life for themselves and for their families. For some this search is the beginning of a nightmare experience. From 'hotel receptionist' to night club 'dancer' to 'domestic worker', Stolen Lives exposes how women are hired in their country of origin, transported, left without money, passports or permits and become trapped into prostitution or domestic slavery.
Branded as illegal aliens and marooned in a culture they don't understand, they have nowhere to go and no one to help them. With personal testimony from women caught in the trafficking web, Stolen Lives reveals the violent inner workings of international crime networks, the routes and methods involved and how the trafficking gangs are able to circumvent the law.
The trade in women is one of the most shameful abuses of human rights yet continues to be ignored by national governments. Stolen Lives confronts the hidden scandal of global trafficking which exploits women as they attempt to emancipate themselves.
