The
First
Victim
Ridley Pearson
Friday, July 2, 6:00 PM
Best selling author Ridley Pearson's latest thriller places Seattle police lieutenant Lou Boldt in an impossible situation after a shipping container, found floating in Puget sound, is discovered to contain twelve Asian women--three dead.
Boldt, knowing these women were destined for sweatshop labor or prostitution, finds himself drawn into corruption, illegal immigration, and the ruthless Chinese mob.
Join Ridley Pearson for a discussion of his work, why he chose illegal immigration as a topic, and the surprising information his research into illegal immigration and indentured servitude in America revealed to him.
