Crossing the Dark

by HeidiW.Boehringer (Author)

Synopsis

Mona, a high-ranking police officer, has rescued her teenage daughter Perdita from a dangerous criminal who has been using her as a sex slave. But rescue is not the same as recovery - Perdita is still suffering, and her social life and mental state seem to be irreparably damaged. As Mona struggles to reconcile her position as an enforcer of the law with the creeping suspicion that the legal system is skewed toward her daughter's captor, Cesar, she is pulled towards one wreckless moment. As both Mona and Perdita spiral into separate worlds of fear, isolation and despair, Mona, with the help of her fellow officer and confidant Nick, tries to save Perdita from the depression that threatens to overwhelm her. But what if Mona falls victim to her own fury and despair?
