The Cutting Girl: Charlotte

Slave Girls, Book 1

Slave Girls, a new series by bestselling author Louise Allen, reveals a shocking modern-day scandal of County Lines–the single most dangerous form of systematic child abuse prevalent today.

Charlotte—The Cutting Girl—comes from a family of high achievers. Her father is a politician, and her mother is a senior medical officer.

When she moves from her prestigious boarding school she is groomed by a girl two years her senior, spiralling into a cycle of drugs, self-harm, and sexual abuse.

When she goes missing, five other girls do, too. A nationwide media campaign sets out to track them down, but can Charlotte ever escape the gang behind the abduction and abuse?

Disturbing and important

A great fiction story to inform about real world threats to our young people. Ignorance is a threat to the safety of our children.

I couldn’t stop listening

All Louise Allen’s books are A++ but this has to be the best yet. I’m already listening to book 2 as I write this.

The fact that Charlotte's parents did not take time out of their own lives to notice.

I loved that Charolotte found a family that she eventually was able to confidently in and start healing.

Eye opening!

I love Louise Allen’s works and this one was remarkable! It’s raw without being vile, the story is heart wrenching and informative. I look forward to the next.
