NATIONAL BESTSELLER
An unforgettable story of an ordinary woman in astonishing
circumstances who defies the odds.
Timea Nagy was twenty years old when she answered a newspaper ad in
Budapest, Hungary, calling for young women to work as babysitters and
housekeepers in Canada. Hired by what seemed like a legitimate
recruitment agency, Timea left her home believing she would earn good
money to send back to her family. What she didn't know was that she'd
been lured by a ring of international human traffickers--and her life
would never again be the same.
Upon her arrival in Toronto, she was forced into sex labour in some of
the city's seediest nightclubs, starved and controlled by her agents,
and brainwashed to believe she was to blame for her situation. The only
way she'd be free was when her debt was paid--but, no matter how hard
she worked, that debt seemed only to go up, not down.
Out of the Shadows is a gripping, heartbreaking and eye-opening
journey deep into the underworld of human trafficking and the sex trade,
told in riveting detail by one brave survivor. At once tragic and
powerfully redemptive, Timea Nagy's story will stay with you long after
you've read the last page.
