About the book
A timely novella ripped from today’s headlines, Who Will Rescue Us is the story of a young couple, Sofia and Hector, who work at a hotel and hatch a plan to rescue young girls who are being trafficked. Sofia’s two children, left behind while she crossed the river to enter the States, bounce around among relatives, ending up living with a cruel aunt. Through all the hurt, a message of love and forgiveness is woven in by those stepping in to help.
Will Sofia and Hector be able to continue interrupting the plans of the traffickers and helping young girls in harm’s way? Will Sofia be found out and sent back? Will her children, Manny and Isobel, run away or endure the harsh treatment until they, too, can be rescued by their mom:
