Book Description
Fear of being abandoned keeps nineteen-year-old Harmony Dust trapped in an abusive and cruel relationship. She thinks she has hit bottom--tens of thousands of dollars in debt, struggling to get by, and so controlled by her boyfriend that she doesn't protest when he begins openly sleeping around. Things can't get worse . . . until someone tells her how much money she can make as an exotic dancer. For the next three years, Harmony lives a double life as Monique, a dancer in a fully-nude strip club. Scars and Stilettos is Harmony's stark, honest, and ultimately hopeful story of how God found her in that dark, noisy place and led her out. She has since married, completed an MA in social welfare, and now leads Treasures, an organization helping women in the sex trade discover their true worth. "Harmony wrote her story so that you and your friends may get help out of whatever dark tunnel you find yourself in. I know her heart, and it is to see all of us live our lives in the very purpose for which we were created. I do want to warn you . . . once you start this book, you will not be able to put it down. You will laugh, you will cry, you will be encouraged, you will fall in love with God all over again . . . and you will want to get a copy for every person you know." --Holly Wagner, from the preface "Harmony's story is compelling evidence of how far the love of God reaches to heal broken lives and restore all that has been stolen." --Nancy Alcorn, Mercy Ministries

In the small town of Senoia, Georgia—where everything is a skip, hop, or short bus ride away—what could possibly go wrong? Aging Detective Garrett Sandoval stumbles upon strange events that result in a missing person’s case. Details of the crime send him down memory lane, back to a time when his career was just beginning. Years ago, women went missing in nightclubs. Now, their cases are reopened as a copycat shows up and more women disappear. Witnesses mention flickering lights and a popping sound before women vanish. All they leave behind are fancy high-heeled shoes. The case escalates, however, when the culprit leaves a note that says, “I’m back!” Maybe Sandoval doesn’t deal with a copycat but the original villain. An unlikely team comes together to solve this mystery, including several detectives, a burlesque dancer, and a writer, all following clues that lead down a dark and twisted path. Sandoval gets closer and closer to his old nemesis, while balancing on the metaphorical point of a stiletto with the past nipping at his heels.
