Unintended Sacrifices Anita R. Fisk

A well-deserved summer vacation casts the Morgan family into a whirlwind of criminal activities including abduction, murder, and human trafficking. Their nightmare begins in the lush Cascade Mountains of Oregon. Ordinary people seldom realize just how much they can handle until they come face to face with true evil. Sometimes, this evil comes masked as deceptive generosity and insincere helplessness. Like a patient spider, such malevolence lurks in the shadows waiting for a victim. Led by Detective Marco Summers, the rescuers set out to save the innocent. Their desperate search drags them through some of the seediest sections of San Francisco. They are aghast at the depravity and cruelty that some human beings can inflict on others. Determination fuels their spirit as they push forward, facing challenges that test their fortitude and ingenuity. No matter people's good intentions and stalwart efforts, those unintended sacrifices along the way will haunt their lives.
