Slave Across the Street 10th Anniversary Edition

Since The Slave Across the Street was first published, Theresa Flores has become a leading human trafficking subject matter expert and activist. But reaching this point in her recovery didn't happen overnight. This updated edition delves deeper into the aftermath of her experience, physical and emotional implications, and multiple levels of trauma that trafficking can have upon a person.

In this powerful true story, Theresa shares how her life as an all-American, 15-year-old teenager became enslaved into the dangerous world of sex trafficking all while living at home with unsuspecting parents in an upper middle class suburb of Detroit.

Her story peels the cover off this horrific criminal activity and gives both dedicated activists and casual bystanders a glimpse into the underbelly of human trafficking and how her faith set her on a spiritual journey to help others. Theresa's experience provides a well-rounded portrait of the dark world of human trafficking and serves as a reminder of the most important element to overcoming slavery: hope.
