What to expect
After ten years as a national newspaper journalist, Matt had an experience in Brazil which changed his life.
A chance encounter with an 11-year-old girl selling her body on the side of a remote motorway led him into a dark world of exploitation and trafficking few knew existed.
Fast-paced and full of drama, corruption, tragedy, set-backs and victories, this is the gripping story of a race against time - to save hundreds of young victims and expose a hidden, unreported scandal.
"An incredible story filled with moments of hope and heartbreak, Matt has lifted the veil on the shocking horrors of Brazil’s 'exploitation highway’." Ben Fogle
