Well of Despair

Anna, a child victim of the ravages of war, turns to her only means of survival on the streets of Athens. Her mother, brutally ravaged by Italian soldiers and left for dead, instructs her to do what no child should ever be asked to do. The haunting horror of her experience at the well follows her eventually to the streets of New York City where a life of prostitution seems her only choice. A near-death experience sets her on a new path of hope as she struggles to leave the past behind her. Anna’s story takes many twists and turns involving human trafficking of young women and children. How she emerges from her personal ‘well of despair’ will keep you turning the pages.
