Synopsis

Investigative journalist Laurie Forbes is planning her wedding to Elliot Russell when she receives a tip-off that a group of illegally smuggled women is being held somewhere in the East End of London, soon to become victims of the ruthless world of sex trafficking.

During her search, unexpected and devastating events begin throwing her own life into chaos, so fellow journalist Sherry MacElvoy steps in to help. Taking on undercover roles to get to the heart of the ruthless gang of human-traffickers, neither reporter can even begin to imagine what dangers they are about to face and what horrors they will witness.

Neela is one of the helpless Indian girls being held in captivity. Her fear is not only for herself, but her six-year-old niece, Shaila. A disfiguring birthmark has so far saved Neela from the abuse of her violent captors, but she knows it is only a matter of time before she is sent for - and worse, before Shaila is taken. Her desperate bids to seek outside help are constantly thwarted, until finally she, and the women with her, agree there is only one way out ...

Intimate Strangers is a rich and engrossing story of intense love, heartbreak, terror and survival.
