I'm a sucker for flawed characters. Callie is an ex heroin addict, Iraqi vet, street-savvy, and acerbic-witted young woman hoping to regain custody of her son. To help a friend she must cross tracks with her ex and his gangster accomplices. Her journey takes her to a Guatemala and the sex-trafficking, heroin smuggling business. Lots of violence and breakneck pacing; it's a roller-coaster ride with this kick-ass protagonist!

Cinfhen Nice review 7y
