Payback
Description
The third-largest criminal enterprise in the world. One woman plans to stop it.
Solikha Duong, a carefree village girl in northern Cambodia, has her world torn apart by "truck men" from the south. Kidnapped, alone, lost in a brutal adult world and facing a terrible future, she has no one to turn to. But Solikha is tough, resourceful, and won't give up without a fight.
Alice Kwann, on vacation in northern Nevada, is attacked by thugs. Outnumbered, out-muscled and facing a brutal assault, she has no one to turn to. But Alice too is tough, resourceful, and won't give up without a fight.
What binds these women is a shocking secret and a fierce desire for revenge. But the odds are stacked against them. They must seize what little chance they have ... or perish.
