After the untimely passing of his wife Maureen, Frank Peters finds himself grappling with the notion that his once- idyllic life on the Yorkshire Moors has come to an end. The weight of loneliness bears down upon him as his daughter embarks on an emigration journey to Australia, and his son faces his own marital challenges. One fateful night, Frank discovers a frightened young woman hiding at the back of his farmhouse. Her name is Irena, and she reveals that she has been brought to this country by a man who promised her a prosperous future but instead subjected her to the horrors of prostitution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnable to turn her away in the middle of winter due to heavy snowfall, Frank reluctantly extends her invitation for a night's stay. However, as Irena continues to reside with him, the danger grows, as the men she is fleeing from become increasingly determined to find her. Frank realizes that people-trafficking might only be the tip of the iceberg, and he is utterly unaware of the true extent of the evil these individuals are capable of.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the stakes rise, Frank must navigate a perilous web of lies, deceit, and danger, all while trying to protect Irena and himself from the wrath of those who seek to exploit and harm them. \"Brutal\" is a gripping tale that delves into the darkest corners of human nature, showcasing the resilience and determination of the human spirit in the face of adversity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 628g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 163 x 241 x 32 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781447288404\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mandasue Heller","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44099437134074,"sku":"9781447288404","price":9.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/66f3dac62c517acaf6aefb74bd3265e6.jpg?v=1625193647","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/brutal","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
