<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The true extent of human evil is revealed in this suspenseful thriller in which children are stolen--and sold online</b> <p/> Children disappear all the time--but where do they go? <p/> While covering a missing-child case for a tabloid newspaper, washed-up reporter Bentley Noble accidentally stumbles upon a horrifying lead. What he thought was a single kidnapping leads him to discover a human trafficking ring, specializing in sexually obedient children. Noble slowly uncovers a society so depraved that it can only be classified as evil; its members are no ordinary pedophiles, but rather professionals. United by their Satanist beliefs, they're willing to use any means necessary to train their "merchandise"--and keep Noble from uncovering their business. <p/> With the help of a hacker, a researcher, and a true-crime writer, Noble descends into the dark world of human trafficking. But in order to destroy it, he'll have to gamble not only his life, but also his sanity. <p/><i>Shackled</i>, author Ray Garton's most controversial work yet, is not for the faint of heart--or stomach. <br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Ray Garton's <i>Shackled</i> has been traumatizing readers for fifteen years. Here are what some of them have to say about it: <p/>"I almost couldn't bear to continue; but the story was so gripping I knew I would have to . . . It is so frightening that it doesn't seem there is any further way for the story to intensify . . . The finale is virtuosic, and the plot twists up more and more, exponentially so, to a climax which is nothing short of vertiginous." --Michael Edwards <p/>"Read it if you can. But I warn you, you might not be able to. And that is the highest recommendation it is possible to give horror fiction." --Richard Wright <p/>"There were several occasions when I had to put to the book down, take a deep breath and say, 'I can't believe that happened to that character!' If you want to be shocked, if you have a strong stomach or if you just want to find out how terrible the world can be--highly recommend <i>Shackled</i>. Just don't expect it to be a pleasant ride." --Eoghain O'Keefe<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Ray Garton is the author of sixty books, including horror novels such as the Bram Stoker Award-nominated <i>Live Girls</i>, <i>Crucifax</i>, <i>Lot Lizards</i>, and <i>The Loveliest Dead</i>; thrillers like <i>Sex and Violence in Hollywood</i>, <i>Murder Was My Alibi</i>, and <i>Trade Secrets</i>; and seven short story collections.
