Description

An unforgettable story of an ordinary woman in astonishing circumstances who defies the odds.

Timea Nagy was 20 years old when she answered a newspaper ad in Budapest, Hungary, calling for young women to work as babysitters and housekeepers in Canada. Hired by what seemed like a legitimate recruitment agency, Timea left her home believing she would earn good money to send back to her family. What she didn't know was that she'd been lured by a ring of international human traffickers - and her life would never again be the same. 

Upon her arrival in Toronto, she was forced into sex labour in some of the city's seediest nightclubs, starved and controlled by her agents, and brainwashed to believe she was to blame for her situation. The only way she'd be free was when her debt was paid - but, no matter how hard she worked, that debt seemed only to go up, not down. 

Out of the Shadows is a gripping, heartbreaking, and eye-opening journey deep into the underworld of human trafficking and the sex trade, told in riveting detail by one brave survivor. At once tragic and powerfully redemptive, Timea Nagy's story will stay with you long after you've heard the last moments.

Ce que les critiques en disent

National best seller

"Out of the Shadows...takes a brutally honest look at Nagy's experience in the expansive yet largely hidden world of human trafficking while offering readers hope and information on how they can help in the fight against trafficking.... Out of the Shadows is a book filled with uncomfortable yet unforgettable anecdotes, keen insights and painful memories for Nagy...a compelling first-hand account of the murky world of human trafficking." (The Sarnia Observer

"Timea Nagy's harrowing story deeply reports the ugliness of human trafficking. But it's ultimately a remarkable tale of survival and resilience, with lessons for a country that considers itself to be a safe place for immigrants." (Pauline Dakin, best-selling author of Run, Hide, Repeat

"Out of the Shadows is a story of survival in the face of unimaginable circumstances. In a voice that is heartbreakingly innocent and honest, Timea Nagy inspires us to recognize the strength of purpose and resilience, and redemption." (Jackie Kai Ellis, best-selling author of The Measure of My Powers

Times Nagy is a hero!

I hope that Timea Nagy is very proud of herself. I am so happy that she was commended for her incredible achievements and her dedication to helping individuals from diverse backgrounds. Her strength and determination are truly admirable. I greatly appreciate her efforts in supporting survivors and raising awareness about the pressing issue of human trafficking.

While I personally have not experienced sex trafficking, I have unfortunately endured several instances of physical assault and sexual assault. The Canadian law for sexual assault victims is not always in our favour, a lot of the time we get screwd over in the end for trying to do the right thing. My attacker was found innocent by a jury and it has changed me so much, it broke me, and I feel like I'm the one living in prison - where he belongs. As a former cam girl, I understand how the online sex industry can involve aspects that resemble elements of sex trafficking, as we are often compelled to market ourselves in various ways. However, I acknowledge that my experiences pale in comparison to the unimaginable suffering that genuine victims of sex trafficking endure.

Timea Nagy's work serves as a reminder that we must continue to advocate for survivors, provide support, and work towards eradicating human trafficking in all its forms. Thank you for telling your story.

Exceptional and inspiring

First of all, it takes a lot of strength and courage to have lived and gone through everything Timea went through. I can't imagine how it must have been for her to re-live the experience everytime she had to share her story and to even keep going after it all. She didnt diserve what happened to her. I admire her as a person, a human, a woman. She's a true hero. I am so grateful for her story as I am sure I am not the only one. Shows how strong a woman can be. She made a huge difference in many parts of the world and in many lives. Forever grateful! Narrator was very good. Loved the book.

Earth shattering

This book is heartfelt, terrifying, gripping, and hopeful. Timea’s story is brutally honest and well written. If you live in the Toronto area, you will recognize a lot of the places she mentions as well.

This story is not for the faint of heart. It contains brutal details of the abuse she endured.

Amazing story amazing woman!

I would highly recommend this book. The true story of Timea’s journey is amazing. This really brings the underground world of human trafficking into the spot light. The strength of this woman and where she is today is a miracle. The story is engaging, gripping, terrifying and joyful. The narration is excellent. I finished this book in 2 days :)

incredible and heart wrenching true story

This had me gripped all the way through it. An incredible story of tragedy and bravery. I am appalled at what Timea & others went through and how many still suffer around the world. I can't imagine what so many are still going through.
