Photo journalist, Jean Pierre Fontaine knows human trafficking comes in many forms. It was his piece on the kadogos (child soldiers) of Uganda that won him a Pulitzer Prize. Now determined to expose the ruthless use of slave labor in the mines of the DRC, Jean Pierre ventures into the Virunga Mountains, where he is taken captive by the ruthless commander of God's Unified Coalition Army. Alone and unaware of what has happened to her husband, Betta Fontaine is forced to return to the nightmare of her former life when human rights war criminal, Cyrus Munianeza kidnaps her children to bait her into returning to him. Realizing it is up to her to save them, Betta puts herself back into the hands of a monster and hopes she can survive.The eruption of Mt. Nyiragongo brings humanitarian aid worker, Xavier Mwena and his team back near his former Rwandan home and into a nightmare that could cost him his life or reunite him with those he thought dead.The vast expanses and the jungles of the African interior challenge Jean Pierre, Betta, and Xavier as each fights a race against time and evil.

As a child, Debra discovered a love of reading. To go on an adventure with Tom Sawyer or solve a mystery with Nancy Drew entertained her for hours and inspired her to put pencil to paper. She graduated to a typewriter in high school and finally to a computer as an adult. Putting words on paper to create a scene, elicit an emotion, encourage imagination, and inspire action has always intrigued her. When she found she could express herself better with written words, the seeds planted as a child grew into a passion. Her own adventures began in Africa where she went to work building and running an orphanage that became home to an average of eighty-five children. The inspiration for her first book, Journey to Sanctuary began there and came to fruition when she returned home. In an effort to expose the very real problem of human trafficking, Debra continued the story in her sequel Journey to Freedom and brought the Escaping the Darkness story full circle. Today Debra lives in the southwestern Colorado town of Montrose, where she works and writes. In her spare time, she enjoys the beautiful outdoors and spending time with her children and grandchildren. Meet her on facebook or at www.sonlightpublishing.com
