Thank you so much for your thorough and enlightening review on this eye-opening book about human trafficking. You have done a phenomenal job of showing us the main points. However, after reading only the first 3-4 pages of the sample, I won’t be finishing that segment. In just those pages alone I encountered more than enough profanity for my taste to continue.

I enjoyed the captivating and gripping intro to Global Vice. I like the flow of narration and action-packed scenes; I find them beautifully written. The story progress is intense and thrilling at the same time, I find one as the reader can take a lot from this read. However, I do not like profanity and strong language. Thank you for the review, wonderfully connected to the book.

It is truly sad how big of a problem trafficking is nowadays. We think we live in an intelligent society, yet the cruelty of this matter is still present. Thank you, author, for bringing this problem up and removing the covers of it.

The book carries a thought-provoking and insightful message. One of the most disgraceful acts of human beings is child-sex trafficking. It is appalling to think that somewhere, a little child is being auctioned to a bidder. I would like to read this book to understand the authors thoughts on this matter.

An action-packed thriller story of a fight against human trafficking and modern child slavery. It'll be an interesting and suspenseful read.

Human trafficking is a scary topic. A crime novel giving insight as to what drives people to engage in eg. child slavery must be a gripping read.

Andrew Rafkin has done a great, commendable job here, by writing to address the issue of human trafficking, and also entertain readers at the same time. Your review is amazing.

The sample pages were compelling; I liked the narration style and the suspense build-up. I was eager to read further and find out who beat up Alexander and why. I also enjoyed the concept of Artificial General Intelligence, EVE. However, since I have been reading about AI and its involvement in fighting criminal activities in other books, I want to take a break from this theme. I will skip this one. Congratulations on the BOTD, though!

This seems like a thrilling read. Any story that has any form of mafia group is usually intense. Modern slavery exists and this book sheds light on it. Excellent review

The issue of trafficking and slavery is still crawling underneath everyone's skin. I love that the author takes liability to help others in addressing this issue together with others against it. The review explains the book in a glorious picture. It's a book worth reading. Even if I'm not fond of reading books that lay bare the vices of evil organizations, this book will be worth going through for all those who do.

I think this book sounds really interesting. I typically quite enjoy it when authors don't shy away from the harsh realities of the world, and it sounds like Andrew J. Rafkin definitely doesn't. Great review!

I like that this book explores the issue of child trafficking. Despite our progress to modernization this vice has only become worse. Thanks for the review.

A whopping 4billion people is still under modernize slavery.
I'm glad the author elaborated on the evils of child/human trafficking and child-sex slavery through the characters in his story.
This book will make a great read.
Congrats on the BOTD.
