When both her wealthy family and the victims' relatives refuse to intervene, Adair takes matters into her own hands to dismantle an underground human trafficking operation protected by corrupt law enforcement. Aided only by her lover, Helen Ivers, Adair is plunged into a dangerous, dark criminal underworld spanning from suburban Boston to the legal brothels of Nevada. The narrative seamlessly interweaves intense suspense and high-stakes action with a deeply committed, self-sacrificing sapphic romance."}
