In Separated at the Border, a 24-year-old female freelance journalist and an ex-Army Ranger and journalism professor team up to fight abuse at a for-profit immigrant youth detention facility in the Florida Everglades. Along the way, the two are forced to take on a Miami-based human trafficking gang and a corrupt facility administrator while skirting the law and dodging a suspicious Broward County Sheriff's detective.

It tells the story of a young woman's quest for professional and personal fulfillment while searching for a solution to the plight of abused and incarcerated children.

Separated at the Border is an exceptional example of fast-paced, contemporary adult fiction. It's a story that is both inspiring and suspenseful.
