Whether it is dealing with the jaded feelings of lost love, the misuse of an abusive man, the disappointment and embarrassment of divorce, or the financial woes of being a single mother; all women must survive some personal tragedy in their lives. In this gripping tale of lost souls, misguided teens, rapists, bastardized children, disease, human trafficking and abuse; three women s lives are tested, nearly torn apart, and then tied together by one motivating force...their wills to survive. After Sasha s father dies from a heroin overdose and her mother gives her up for adoption, she is quickly lost to the allures of the street life; drugs, sex, money. Infatuated with seeming older than her years, she lies to men about her age so they will sleep with her, uses fake ID s to get into clubs, and eventually inherits the burdens of being a single, teen mother with an ailment she must live with forever. Denise s life is scarred by dysfunctional men, drug use, divorce and a mother s agony of dealing with a rebellious child. Since her first divorce Denise s been caring for her two sons alone. From sacrificing for their sakes to spending sleepless nights waiting for them to return safely from the streets, Denise faces a mother s ultimate pain when her son becomes a suspect in a murder.

Enticed by a friend to come work for her friends in Norway, Amina soon finds herself in a brothel being forced to prostitute by brutal traffickers. See how six degrees of separation ties the lives of these three women together in this spell bounding novel by Saleem Little.
