Time is ticking ... Can a lonely sixteen-year-old girl escape the clutches of human traffickers before she’s sold off to the highest bidder?

When Lindy Montgomery’s mother dies, she’s left without friends or companionship until she meets a mysterious young woman in a sandwich shop who teaches her how to make herself more alluring to the opposite sex.

Lindy’s so-called boyfriend takes her on a weekend trip under the guise of celebrating his birthday. The real reason for the trip turns out to be much more sinister. He drops her off at a hunting preserve, where she and other young girls are to be sold into sex slavery.

Nearby, the citizens of a small Mississippi town are oblivious to the evil in their midst. A favorite son has returned to town after becoming wealthy as a tech owner and investor. Concerned about the property on which the hunting preserve sits, and full of questions about the suspicious deaths of his wife and child in a car crash and his mother in a house fire on the same day, he employs a local lawyer to help him figure out what’s going on.

Can they solve the mystery before Lindy is lost forever?

J. Stephen Beam, a resident of Sumrall, Mississippi, is a retired physician who has taken up his passion for writing fiction. The Bondage of Innocents is his second published novel, although he has also authored or coauthored articles for the Journal of the Mississippi State Medical Association and has contributed a chapter for a textbook focused on the field of athletic training. He has appeared on local TV many times, most recently to discuss his first novel, The Death Letter, a work that was well received and sold out its first printing. He has dreamed of writing novels since his sixth-grade year when he began to read voraciously.
