Deliver Me From evil is a very compelling book. Although it is a work of fiction, the theme is one that we all need to know more about--modern-day slavery of children for the purpose of prostitution.
As I came to know the characters, I was saddened by the striking contrasts in their lives--Jonathan and Leah, American teens from a loving, Christian home; Mara, a teen-age sex slave in San Diego--sold by her parents in Mexico as a young child; and Chanthra, a sex slave in Thailand.
I wanted to do more than cry for the broken children. I wanted to give them hope for a future--a future that would be denied to most of them.
This book gave me much to think about. What can I or should I be doing to combat this evil of sex slavery?
