1:03:18Now PlayingIn his fifteenth novel, Bohjalian, the author of the bestselling Midwives and The Sandcastle Girls, follows the fortunes of an ordinary middle-class couple as their lives suddenly collide with the dark world of international human trafficking. Richard’s career and marriage are in jeopardy after he hosts a bachelor party which ends with two men dead and two women missing. The women, abducted as teenagers to work in the sex industry, are on the run and have finally regained their freedom—only to wander New York with no documents, money, or friends.
