Deadly Traffic - Paperback

A job in the United States is a strong lure for citizens of third world countries, and predatory organizations are eager to assure their entry. Girls are disappearing from Standard High while the local sex trade flourishes. Their absences are barely noticed in the worst school in Arbor City, CA, where turnover and truancy are facts of life. Kendra Desola, the only faculty member likely to care, is on a leave of absence. After a student's lifeless body turns up in a seedy part of town, an immigrant community leader contacts Kendra. What does she know about the missing students' activities, their families' illegal status? Searching for the missing girls, Kendra enters a dark world where passports and flesh are currency, and knowledge can be fatal.
