The American Beach—La Spiaggia Americana—puts a human face to the pain and fears of victims of human trafficking and their loved ones. It looks at issues in identifying, investigating, and rescuing victims. The fact-based fictional background provides readers the ability to grasp and understand the reality of human trafficking, particularly sex trafficking, in a frank and simplified way. The story traces the development of Jerry, a United States Army detective, beginning with two quick stories set in southern Arizona before moving to Italy. Through great difficulty, Jerry comes to faith in Christ and deals with his own sins of the flesh as his Christian walk matures. Much research and many interviews with law enforcement and others involved in anti-human trafficking went into writing this book. Readers will have their hearts pricked and their eyes opened to the human suffering that is often hidden in plain sight, while being brushed over by modern media.

"Gets right under Italy's skin. Few books about living in foreign climes are written as entertainingly, beautifully or romantically." -- Sydney Morning Herald WINNER OF THE GROLLO RUZZENE FOUNDATION PRIZE When Chris travelled from Sydney to Dublin, he never dreamed his life was about to change forever. There he meets Daniela - one L, smile as you say it to pronounce it correctly - and it's amore at first sight. Before he can say si, he's uprooted to follow her to her sun-kissed hometown of Andrano, Puglia, tucked in the heel of southern Italy. The whitewashed houses, olive groves and cobblestone lanes are beautiful, but soon Chris is getting to grips with everyday Italian life. There's infuriating bureaucracy, an anarchic road system and - biggest challenge of all - Daniela's mamma, who's determined to convert him to the Catholic faith and build an extension on her house where the couple might live la dolce vita.
