The American Beach—La Spiaggia Americana—puts a human face to the pain and fears of victims of human trafficking and their loved ones.

The fact-based fictional background provides readers the ability to grasp and understand the reality of human trafficking, particularly sex trafficking, in a frank and simplified way. The story traces the development of Jerry, a United States Army detective, beginning with two quick stories set in southern Arizona before moving to Italy.

Readers will have their hearts pricked and their eyes opened to the human suffering that is often hidden in plain sight, while being brushed over by modern media.
