I'm sure I'm not alone in not grasping the horror of sex slavery before reading The Guest Room and your insight was well researched as well as eye-opening. The control of these young people is stunning as to steps taken to secure their continued obedience. Any chance of writing a follow up on Alexandra? It seems her tale may just be beginning!

Thank you, Bobby. I know what you mean.
I have never written a sequel to a novel, but one never knows.
And I am so pleased that you want to read more about Alexandra. I know how much I missed her when I finished writing the novel.
I actually wrote a short story about her: a prequel to "The Guest Room." You can read it here:

As the unofficial "Mayor" of Booktopia, I have an invitation. I do not know when you will be getting to Manchester but, a big group of us (about 20) eat dinner on Thursday (April 25) at Thai Basil which is about a block from the bookstore. You would be welcome to join us. I usually make a reservation a few days before we arrive. I'll post on the FB page for reservations. Would you like to join us? Linda
