Children disappear all the time. Itis in the news every day. Where do they go? What happens to them? Who has taken them? While covering a story for his tabloid newspaper, reporter Bentley Noble accidentally stumbles onto something else entirely…a story about something so unspeakable, he doesnit know if anyone will believe it…a story that pulls him down into the depths of evil and depravity and threatens his very life. With the help of a bestselling true-crime writer, Noble descends into the dark world of human trafficking, where fear and pain are tools of control and innocence is sold to the highest bidder. As a handful of good and decent people try to combat a monstrously powerful and all too real evil, some lives will be shattered, others will be ended…but none will be the same. Ray Gartonis SHACKLED has been traumatizing readers for 15 years. Here are what some of them have to say about it: "I almost couldn’t bear to continue; but the story was so gripping I knew I would have to….It is so frightening that it doesn’t seem there is any further way for the story to intensify….The finale is virtuosic, and the plot twists up more and more, exponentially so, to a climax which is nothing short of vertiginous." n Michael Edwards http://www.foxall.com.au/users/mje/Shackled.htm "Read it if you can. But I warn you, you might not be able to. And that is the highest recommendation it is possible to give horror fiction." n Richard Wright "There were several occasions when I had to put to the book down, take a deep breath and say, e I canit believe that happened to that character!i If you want to be shocked, if you have a strong stomach or if you just want to find out how terrible the world can benhighly recommend SHACKLED. Just donit expect it to be a pleasant ride." n Eoghain O’Keefe
