After interviewing trafficked women for a non-profit organization, Jewels Precia thought she had heard the worst of their horrors. But when she travels to Panama to report her findings at a global conference, her night terrors become a chilling reality.

Thirteen-year-old Raquel Lopez is tired of feeling suffocated by her overbearing mother and her soccer coach. When the charming Sebastian offers her attention and lavish gifts, she becomes entangled in a dangerous game known as The Gem Exchange, where buyers expect sexual favors in exchange for precious jewels.

As the lives of these three women are threatened, each of them must decide how much they are willing to risk to gain their freedom.
