Left alone on the dangerous streets of Kosovo's capital and rescued by two American UN heroes, but then kidnapped by soldiers claiming to be from The Kosovo Liberation Army. With much more sinister things on their mind. A tale of torment and abuse. A girl sold for sex to the highest bidder. Informed she would be killed, and her organs harvested.
