An Angel and a One-Armed Man

By BD Lawrence

Description:

Lefty Bruder is minding his own business at his favorite bar when Eileen Seager asks him to find Angel, her missing niece. Lefty’s PI business is going nowhere, just where he wants it to go. But the picture of Angel and the thought of getting to know Eileen gnaws at him. Why not? He has nothing better to do.

The PI discovers that a wealthy widower named Calvin Rockport kidnapped Angel from her pimp. He follows Rockport to a sex auction where the older man purchases more girls and then rips off Jackson McCormitt, a major sex dealer.

Lefty finds himself thrust into the middle of a battle between sex trade power players who are after Angel, Lefty, and each other. All Lefty wants is to stay alive and return Angel to her aunt. But to do so, he must first determine if Rockport is a savior, a pornographer, or something more sinister.

Book Takeaway:

Human trafficking is real, evil, and a scourge on our world. But there's hope in helping one girl at a time.

Why the author wrote this book:

Start of a series on human trafficking where I hope to raise awareness of sex trafficking. Also, I think the Christian market is missing private eye novels with some grit in them. I want to shine a light on God, but also shine a light on the evils of our world.
