Moved Book

A synopsis of my book Moved, a work in progress…

A former madame. A radical activist. Forty thousand trapped girls. And those across an ocean whose lives changed forever.

Anita Tamang was nineteen years old when she left her Nepali home to work as a maid at the urging of a village friend. But when she stepped off the train into an unfamiliar city, her dreams fell apart. Within hours Anita was imprisoned in a brothel, fighting for her life in a world more horrific and brutal than she had ever imagined.

Twenty-five years later, Anita sits as a free woman in a church less than two kilometers from the place she had once been captive. Her freedom was a miracle, but that was only the beginning of her story. Beyond the church’s walls, thousands of girls are still trapped as sex slaves in Mumbai’s violent brothel system, waiting on a miracle of their own. Anita has not forgotten them.

Led by a man with relentless compassion, Anita is part of an effort to rescue trafficked girls from an area coined “the place women go to die.” They are on the front lines of a growing fight that proves nothing is impossible when the God of justice moves in the hearts of his people.
