Enslaved The New British Slavery (First Paperback Edition)
‘Slavery does not belong to the past. It lives and breathes in our midst and Rahila Gupta’s powerful exposé opens a window on this secret world. This is one of the most shocking books you will read about contemporary Britain; that human beings should be treated with such degradation and cruelty is a disgrace we should find unbearable. I hope the author’s passion ignites a new anti-slavery campaign. Sign me up.’ Helena Kennedy
