Description
Forced into a life they never chose, manipulated, abused and tortured at the hands of the pimps who control them, our country’s children are sold on the streets, on the internet and at truck stops across America every night. They aren’t bad kids who made bad choices.
They are victims of child sex trafficking.
They come from our neighborhoods, our schools, our churches, and sometimes our own homes. Author Linda Smith brings to life characters based on real stories and interviews with teen survivors. Meet Lacy and Star as they reveal the underbelly of our country s commercial sex trade.
Get to know the men who sell them, and the ones who buy them. Let Renting Lacy draw you into the lives of these young girls as they struggle to survive each night, watching their childhood hopes and dreams slip away in the darkness. Let it compel you to action.
This new edition includes a group discussion guide in the back to enable you to expand understanding of this book and further equip readers to take action.
Lucy Liu –
This book is chilling and drags you into the world of the cruel sex industry. I’m 15 years old and it’s terrifying that girls younger than I (eg: Star) are forced through prostitution when they should be hanging with their friends or at school. I’ve been passing this book around to my friends and it has given them all a new view to the world. I recommend this book for everyone to read, share, feel and understand.
